The Red Dress

Conversations in Stitch

Kirstie Macleod

Description

The Red Dress, conceived by British artist Kirstie Macleod, offers a platform for people, mostly women, many of who have experienced trauma or hardship, to share their remarkable stories.

The book celebrates the award-winning project created by 380 individuals from 51 countries over 14 years from 2009–2023. It features poignant embroiderer stories on themes such as identity, empowerment and the healing power of embroidery plus reflections from milestones in the project.

The project continues with the ongoing worldwide exhibition tour of the dress, alongside workshops with groups who are creating their own ‘sister dresses’ as part of the Calico Garment Initiative.
