Dressed: The History of Fashion

Dressed Classic: The Red Dress Embroidery Project with Artist Kirstie Macleod

We revisit our interview with artist Kirstie Macleod who joined us in 2021 to share the stories behind The Red Dress Project, her then eleven year collaboration empowering women artisans from around the world to share their stories through embroidery. Fast forward to today and the now 14 year old project includes millions of stitches from the work of 380 embroiders from 51 countries.
