Mud Matters.
Mud, this most fundamental commodity in Djenne, has been even more than usual in evidence today. Not only was Pudiogou applying it to create our new COW
pattern for my creation the COW dress, to be unveiled on the 14th...
Indeed, Gilliane. I have been thinking of you today quite a lot. I wonder if that is why? The COW dress is a killer. It is going to be worn with the COW hat- (no it does not have horns). It is going to open the show. It is the embodiment of MaliMali- we are not FASHION but STYLE. (How is that for a catchphrase? Pretentious enough?)
I had never thought about how much mud matters before seeing your mud hotel, and now these beautiful fabrics. I look forward to seeing reports of the fashion show, too.
good luck with the cows, giraffes, zebras and STYLe. Hope it all goes exceptionally well and we look forward to seeing the photo evidence and reading the report. Mary
