Allan Brown makes a dress by hand just from the fibre of foraged stinging nettles over 7 years.
A modern day fairytale and hymn to the healing power of nature and slow craft.
Our film is a handspun labour of love too and follows him every step of the way.
'This is an exquisite film. Extremely beautiful and helpful for anyone suffering loss or grief. An inspiration'.
Sir Mark Rylance
I feel blessed to have seen The Nettle Dress film in a cinema. It is 7 years since our amazing daughter, Amy, died. She set me 3 challenges, as a gift to help me, when she knew she was dying. One of these was to keep sewing. Your journey with fibre and textile and so much of what you shared in the film really I healing. I felt as though I was in a personal meditation during it. Thank you so much for creating and sharing The Nettle Dress. 🥰🙌👏🙏
Dear Anne, thanks so much for writing this and I can't tell you how glad we are that the film felt meditative for you, or that it gave you comfort. It makes all the years making the dress, and the film, worthwhile. Wishing you all the very best, Dylan 💚🙏
That is beautiful…your daughter didn’t want you to lose your purpose when she left you here ❤ She was indeed amazing 😊🤗
In Lithuanian folk tales the clothing from nettles symbolised the highest protection. Usually the sister is making nettle clothing as part of her task to be able to find and rescue her lost and cursed brothers. It takes her nine years to make it. Can’t wait to see the movie.
Thanks! The fairy tale 'Wild Swans' is referenced in the film. Can't wait for you to see it - we're hoping to make it available this autumn online.
I just retired from being an oncology nurse. So many years of facing death. My first retirement goal is to learn to harvest and spin nettle fiber. This couldn't be coming at a better time for me!
It's such a beautiful and spiritual journey and testimony for everyone believing in the power of Nature and creativity! Thank you so much for sharing it through a film. I live in France and hope I'll be able to find it somewhere.
Actually I saw your video on nettle processing several years ago while I was looking for ways to make natural yarns. Thanks to you I managed to do some. But this fabric and this amazing dress are magical ! 🙏🙏🙏
Such a spiritual, reverence and entrancing creation and connection - so beautiful.
A beautiful testimony about creativity overcoming grief.
Thanks!💚
This film says so much about everything and the story of the landscape and nettle speaks about our relationship with the land and what it is to be human. Thank you so much 💚
thanks eleanor!💚
oh my. I didn't expect that story to come out from such a topic. We hear of the transformative nature of mushrooms so often, but rarely other plants - thank you this story will stay with me, and I have no doubt will be repeated.
Thanks Andy, hope you can come to screening of the whole film soon!
@@dylanhowitt ooh me too my friend. You were mentioned on the Association of Foragers meeting room so there might be a few of us!!!
@@theotherandyhamilton Are you UK based? If so there's an online screening planned on Aprill 22nd, in case you or anyone you know is interested: watch.eventive.org/nettledress/play/642427a9a64c600039d14072
Utterly beautiful story and I can feel the love that is intrinsically part of the process and the dress. ❤
Thanks Michelle! Yes, the dress is made out of love...
What a dad! ❤ I wish......
Full of awe
I'm from the Netherlands and have occasionally seen your other videos on processing nettle fibre, and have started trying it myself. I've managed only a small patch so far, so seeing your metres and metres of cloth is really inspiring. I would love to see your whole story. Any chance of seeing it outside the UK?
We're planning to slowly release the film in cinemas and the Netherlands is on the list. Hoping for the big screen to start with!
Absolutely Extraordinary and Unbelievably Inspiring!!! I already know the full documentary is a must see masterpiece!!!
💚🌱✨
Thank-you ! So happy it's inspiring for you. Where in the world are you - we're working on distribution and hopefully you'll get to see the whole film soon?
@@dylanhowitt Sounds divine! I’m in Phoenix, Arizona, USA 🌀✨
@@ashersinclaire will keep that in mind in case we show there!☺
Wow. The language of cloth. The weaving of nature, history and love and all of the emotions in it. I can’t wait to see the film but I am already so touched by the beauty here.
thankyou, so glad it resonates with you 💚
Beautiful. Looking forward to seeing it Dyl 🙏🏽❤️
Ro! Thanks dude. I'll let you know when we're playing in London, it would be great to see you!☺
Please do Dyl. My working hours are awkward because of the shop but I’d love to see it - and you! The themes resonate with me on many levels as you can imagine. Well done man 🙏🏽❤️
Thanks man! Working on London distribution - I'd love to get a Rio screening round the corner from you...fingers crossed ☺
That’d be great Dyl! 🤞🏽🤞🏽❤️

@@dylanhowitt thank you. It seems to be available on Curzon too?
@@myriambressani7019 it is - but that’s only UK and Ireland. We’re working on making the film more widely available but it’s taking some time!
Pukka, well done.
Thanks Richard, appreciate it!
hm, some close-up shots of the final dress would ve been nice, great project otherwise
It's a trailer - I'm guessing that a close up shot will be in the full documentary.
@@TheKazadoodle Plenty of close ups in the main film!
@@dylanhowitt Yes, I thought there would be.
I cried watching this. That dress, that fiber, that fabric is the single most beautiful thing I've ever seen. I've been called to work with nettle, and the way you speak to the plant spirit really catches my soul. I would love an opportunity to view this film in the US. I found yall through your interview on Accidental Gods and I immediately hopped over to see the dress and the fabric. I GASPED when I saw the dress. Such love, such beauty, such history and connection. You folks are a true inspiration. Sending prayers to the spirits of your beloved family passed beyond the veil 🙏
Thanks so much Lisa! We're just looking into a one off online screening - maybe follow us on Instagram so you know when? @nettledressfilm
Stunning story and film... Just saw The Nettle Dress today and was blown away with the level of craft involved in the making of the dress and the exquisite way the story was visually revealed...
Thanks Damien, appreciate you coming to watch the film and so glad you enjoyed it
So beautiful on so many levels, shed some tears just watching the trailer 💚 Looking forward to watching the film
Thanks so much! 😍
I'm wondering, does somebody know how many square meters of nettles you would need for a meter of yarn or a m² woven fabric?
Thaks for the help :-)
When can we see it in the US? It looks like a beautiful film.

That is beautiful! And the dress is pretty nice too :)
Only kidding. Or paying my dues to your daughter for modelling. I love your videos and making cloth from nettles fascinates me. Thank you!
Just rented this in the UK--an exquisite meditation on love, loss, and the power of intention and attention. I'm in awe. Thank you for sharing your magical journey
Thanks Georgina!❤
