This collection revisits the measuring tape’s utility, is it an eveningwear silk dress strap, a stunning velvet dress’s belt, or is it repeatedly wrapped around a lucky girls hips as a skirt, perhaps it is a leather belt with a beautiful crystal buckle or gold brass. What is a measuring tape really? MWINDA’s M collection is giving the measuring tape the front stage.
