I love the idea of using clothes as wall art, and this photo from Poppytalk proves that you don't need a big budget to create one-of-a-kind decor. Here, old mementos and a vintage-y dress play off a bright modern chair.

I just don't understand this trend. It just looks to me like she needs to put those clothes where they belong. [in addition to taking the spare buttons off of them and putting them in THEIR proper place]
1Oh... AND iron that one top!
[yes, i know it's supposed to look like that]
2Yea I dunno if I could have this one. My boyfriend would be like "Honny! Put away your clothes, the room looks messy!"
3I feel like this is a case of trying too hard.
4I like it! I think that if the rest of the room isn't cluttered, and the dress can lay flat against the wall it could definitely work.
Maybe now I have something to do with the gorgeous dress I bought at Anthropologie that I'll
probably never wear!
5I think it could be cute for the right person, but I would rather wear the dress.
6Yeah, that's what my laundry area looks like sometimes. I don't really consider that art.
7As a gentleman, I don't think I can make this work.
8I have a friend who has a sewing mannequin in her living room and she dresses it for each season. It looks beautiful (she does iron the clothes). Even though it works for her, I could never see it in my home. I agree with popgoestheworld that it looks like they are trying to hard in the photo above.
9Love the vintage look! I once decorated with a wide brimmed straw sun hat surrounded by green, red, blue and yellow rustic picture frames for a great low cost country look.
10Yeah it just looks like she has a dress out that she's about to wear. I couldn't leave all of this clutter around anyway, it'd give me a headache.
11I'm more about simplfying so I don't like a lot of clutter but I actually think this is a beautiful look and I love the vintage paperwork on the wall, it works perfectly with the dress.
12It seems like the person in the photo is trying to hard, like she is having a hard time fitting everything in the closet and that fell out right before someone came over, and the person just shoved it onto a hanger. Tacky.
13I "get" the Flip Flap Plant, but I don't "get" this. This looks like some lazy person doesn't want to put their clothes away!
14i don't like clutter too. this whole thing looks so messy. i can't stand it when my clothes are hanging everywhere!!!
15Very artsy.
16i've seen very, very expensive and ornately beaded caftans from morocco used as art, but this dress seems way too simple to be used for its intended purpose.
17I think this look rarely works and most often comes across as "trying too hard" as popgoestheworld noted.
18I kinda like it
I could definately see an antique sewing manequin with a dress on in
a sewing room, or maybe in a boudoir. Especially if it were a vintage Chanel or something. I dont mind it so much. I just dont like it on a hanger.
19carrie. bradshaw's. apartment.
20this is gorgeous! i love everything about this! thanks Casa!
21I have a sewing room that I do this in, but i think it would look nice in other areas too.
I also like my scarf hanger, it brings alot of color to an otherwise dull apartment wall...
