She’ll have her own fashion show in March to highlight the clothes in her new book "Fashion Geek".

As you walked in, you encountered a life-size balloon model wearing a Breton-inspired fashion made made of balloons. This was no birthday party twisted giraffe balloon trick, as you can see in the picture. Moss’ work is large scale and incredible – read more about it at airigami.com





Great show Malan!
