Marit Fujiwara is a design graduate looking to get noticed and if these four pieces are any indication, she deserves a lot of attention.

Marit Fujiwara has created a [collection of dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heli-kalkstein) that look like they are [watercolor paintings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saori-matsushita) taken straight off the wall and put into clothing. The intensely intricate dresses are not only beautiful, but impressive, as the time spent making each would be immense. Take a look at the up-close pictures of Marit Fujiwara’s fabrics and fall in love like I did.
