jacket: organza ; dress: metallic lamé

labour of love! dedicated to traditional craftsmanship and inspired by fabrication, this jacket is constructed entirely by detracting each piece of fabric by hand to unearth the desired hue. the result is that of geometrically patterned stained glass in fall shades of bordeaux, woodbine green and clay outlined in 'naqshi' and bugle beads. it is juxtaposed against blooms of densely hand emebroidered bugle beads and a minimalist metallic floor length gown for maximum impact.
