Mountie Dress
This key look from Feral Childe's Canadiana-inspired Fall 2007 collection is all about making winter elegance look easy. The waist is gently elasticized. The slinky red jersey version has vintage marzipan-colored Canadian horn buttons down the front, and the brown stretch silk charmeuse version has Feral Childe's own resin log buttons. Oh yes, and there's a silk-screened "Husky" print on the skirt of the dress.

FERAL CHILDE was raised by wolves. It is the wild-haired collaboration of Moriah Carlson and Alice Wu, Brooklyn artists with a common affinity for continually reinventing their everyday selves through dress. Feral Childe cobbles together fanciful clothes from fabric, leather, and studio-detritus, adapting art-making processes for renegade sewing techniques. The resulting garments flaunt playful silhouettes and curiously elegant tailoring. The Fall 2007 collection "Canadian Alphabet" was created during Feral Childe's artist residency at The Drake Hotel in Toronto, Canada.
