In mid-March of this year, we shared with our readers a young man's labours in vestment design. That particular example was of a rose vestment.
Recently, he has undertaken another commission, this time for a blue Marian vestment. Now please note: I realize that blue is not a universally permitted liturgical colour, but a few places do have this privilege of course. The intent here is not to promote blue (though admittedly it wouldn't bother me one bit were the Holy See to extend this permission); rather, the intent is to promote this fine new vestment work by 29 year old Simone Silvagno of Savona.
