You have to go way back to find a moment when mega-bombshell Scarlett Johansson remotely resembled the off-beat women that Peter Jensen has built a career on, but he’s found it.

That sounds more like Jensen, and the results are appropriately quirky and charming.

Alexander Serafimoff illustrates his knitted dresses with colourful landscapes and animals

Alexander Serafimoff is a russian designer who creates knitted dresses illustrated with colourful landscapes and animals. He uses "%100 natural" yarn (sheep's and llama's wool as well as cotton).
