BRAVE NEW WORLD

A tribute to women who have had a breast removed.
Theirs is, indeed, a brave new world.
The bras have been upcycled into trendy hand bags,
embellished with beads and ribbons.
Some of the bags have a small doll, a talisman, a harbinger of hope.
Dolls are made from patterns by Rosalie Quinn and Yvonne Porcella.
Bags are made from a commercial pattern, now lost.
Materials used are recycled bras, fabric, beads, buttons,
ribbon, fibre-fill and found objects.
