A woman is searching for a dressmaker who is able to create a "bespoke ball gown" with design features using her dead mother's hair.
一名女子正在寻找一位裁缝，希望能使用她已故母亲的头发设计一款有特色的“定制舞会礼服”。
The 61-year-old woman from Bristol, who wants to remain anonymous, collected her mother's hair over a four-year period, and is willing to pay a skilled designer up to GBP15,000 to manufacture the garment.
这位希望匿名的61岁女性来自布里斯托尔，她曾在4年时间里收集了母亲的头发，现在愿意花高达1.5万英镑的价钱请一位技艺精湛的设计师来制作这件礼服。
She posted the unusual request on fashion design website Sewport, where she admitted her request was "quite weird”.
她在时装设计网站“岁月港”上发布了这个不太寻常的要求，并承认了自己的要求“相当奇怪”。
She wrote: "I'm looking for someone to recreate my mother's wedding dress from 1953 which she wore when she married my father. My mother passed away recently and I'd like to create a special memento of her life. The dress will serve as this, however I need a specialist as the material I'd like to create it from is admittedly quite weird."
她写道：“我想物色一个人来重新设计母亲结婚时所穿的那件1953年的婚纱。我母亲最近去世了，我希望制作一件特殊物品来纪念她的一生。这条裙子将起到这个作用，但是我想使用的材料确实相当奇怪，因此需要一位能工巧匠。”
She added: "I found out my mother was ill in 2014 and from that point onward I began to collect her hair. At the time I wasn't sure why I was collecting it, however now I think I do."
她补充道：“2014年母亲病了，我从那时就开始收集她的头发。当时我也不清楚自己为什么要收集这个，但现在我觉得我明白了。”
The post includes a sketch of the floor-length gown which will feature human hair on the collar, sleeves and at the hem, and with a central frieze of patterned hair around the midriff.
该帖还提供了这条落地长裙的草图，其领口、袖口和裙脚处将用头发装饰，腰身处有一条上面有用头发缝成图案的饰带。
She said she would like "the bodice around the midsection of the dress to have a lacy, floral design made with the hair."
她表示，自己希望“把裙子中间的紧身部位做成用头发缝制出的带花边的花卉图案”。
Ideally the dress will be ready to wear by August 2019 for the anniversary of her mother's death, she added.
她还表示，理想情况下，她希望在2019年8月母亲逝世一周年纪念日上能穿上这条裙子。
