Just my thought too
Rosa is so particular about everything so I do not understand why she did not see this

Re: Designing hot fashion by recycling knitted fabric

I think she is wearing leggings, my friends, but the way the varied transparency of the fiber and the folds work, it appears that the cut of panties is what we see.

Wonderful dress and concept. Very creative design, and allows the soft flow of the fabric to be at its best.

Re: Designing hot fashion by recycling knitted fabric

I like the dress you show here and a similar one in black on her site (which, btw, does have a button to show the text in English!). She's on Facebook, so I'm going to watch for her now!
