In Your Dreams gives you jewellery to be worn like no other
When we dream of jewellery that is
truly our own we long for pieces that really are one-of-kind,
bespoke, and worn in a way that suits only you. Founded by two
illustrators, Madeline Griffiths and Bryony Fripp, In Your
Dreams does just that - except this jewellery is body
decoration in the truest sense of the idea, and really is
individually made each and every time.
Specialising in face and body
painting, In Your Dreams literally bring the wildest ideas to life
using your very own skin and have worked with the likes of Van
Cleef & Arpels. Bryony and Madeline wanted to create a face and
body painting company with a difference by bringing their drawing
and painting skills and using the body as a new medium. Both felt
Illustration was lonely little world at times,and that they needed
some thing to get them out and around people, which they missed,
and to share their ideas with these very same people. As you
can see from the examples here, one can opt for re-creating the
feel of physical jewellery itself, right down to the sort of stones
you'd like to see adorn your skin, and even the way in which they
do. The effect is striking, not quite a tattoo, and not quite the
jewels themselves, but something altogether more magical.
This idea of the perfect piece
adorning your body in the perfect way is a fascinating one, and
it's not surprising to find that they also provide wider ranging
possibilities for body painting, so much so that In Your
Dreams can be found at all sorts of public and PR events. This
year marks what will no doubt be an exciting time for this unique
brand of extravagance, as they take to festivals all over the
United Kingdom. Starting with the Secret Garden Party in
Cambridgeshire, this summer sees In Your Dreams move on to
Wilderness, Bestival and Camp Bestival.
Not only that, but at each of these
festivals you'll find them in the highly selective Secret Emporium,
which selects and curates British designers and places them under
one delightful canvas roof in a festival setting. As they say
themselves, "Festivals are the ultimate escapism, in your dreams
can create the look you may never have the chance to create in
every day life". Besides what you see here, there is so much more
these two intrepid designers can add to your body, be it
embellishing eyes or eyelashes, painting faces, or giving you that
piece of jewellery that only you can pull off.
