Coloured ink bleeds, Fernando Brízio

I think this design idea is ingenious, it looks like it came out of a happy accident taking the property of a leaking felt-tip and turning it into a plus. By placing coloured felt-tip pens in the pockets of the dress its appearance changes over time. within an hour - to one and a half hours the colored ink bleeds into the fabric and creates a one-off designfor each occasion. the owner can then clean the dress and colour it in a different way for each time they wear it. I am always practical and wonder what would happen in the rain. On the other hand even if its a washable pen would you get all the colour out to start again? I like the idea of 'wearing' the pens too, I love the concept and want to play with felt-tip pens!
