El equivalente efímero a sitios como Net-à-Porter o MyTheresa es DressX,  una tienda online con un importante catálogo de prendas digitales firmadas por marcas consagradas como Alexander KnightGyurin Na y Aschno, por nombrar algunas.

Paul Toner for 10 Magazine

“My final collection is an exploration of Catholic iconography and vestments through the lens of 1970s pop art, focusing particularly on the work of Andy Warhol and Corita Kent (AKA The Pop Art Nun). I wanted it to be full of playful contrasts, between the bright block colours of pop art prints, the lace and volume of a communion gown, the graphic lines of stained glass windows, the strict seriousness of religious vestments and the easy glamour of seventies fashion.”
