Sugar cave - journey to the center of the cake!





So this week, Lucie & I offered our stitching and general all rounder skills to help art directors Emma Rios & Cecilia Carey create an actual real life, full size sugar cave with Bompas&Parr as a part of this years London Fashion Week. Inside, the work of designers Tour da Force, House of Flora, Sveda Mutlu and Aase was pedestaled by the sugar formations and the sugar coated floor!
Sponsered by Silver Spoon, the cave is a vision of how the surroundings would appear were you to be shrunk to the size of a single grain of standard table sugar (0.3-0.5mm). At this size the sugar crystals themselves can be seen.....

Oh, it was sticky work getting the oversized crystals in place and oh so tempting to stick your tongue to when no one was looking....
I'll be adding more photos as the week goes on!
