The Nettle Dress film + live Q&A with Allan Brown

Join us to watch The Nettle Dress (directed by Dylan Howitt, 2023). The Nettle Dress is a remarkable documentary following textile artist, Allan Brown’s 7 year process of making a dress out of locally foraged nettle fibres. Once the film is finished, there will be an in-person Q&A with Allan himself. Not to be missed!

This project has been described as “Hedgerow Couture”, the greenest of slow fashion and also his medicine. It’s how he survives the death of his wife and finds a beautiful way to honour her. A modern day fairytale and hymn to the healing power of nature and slow craft.

Part of the EcoCreative Cluster project and The Rockfield Centre’s Community Film Club.
