Steel Couture

Steel Couture is the work of Brooklyn based designer Lisa Fortin. A former costume designer, Lisa did quite a bit of work with chain metal and soon began to make jewelry knitting and weaving wire. Her concept is the use of rigid materials such as gold, copper, brass and rubber manipulated into soft, feminine shapes. I'm particularly drawn to the "heavy metal" and "josephine" collection..I love the dramatic shapes and materials.
