LBD
here is my finished dress from my LBD project, my theme was eccentric elegance and my inspiration was crows and body movement, I thought about how crows fly and how the human body can imitate the crows movement through dance. I wanted something that would move with the wind, so used a lot of chiffin and geogette for the bottom so when the model or wearer walks the fabrics will flow back with movement and elegance, Im waiting to get this modelled and cant wait to see my dress work the camera!!! overall i am very pleased with my outcome and proud of my mistakes and even prouder of my acheivment.
