Mock Up of a dress from 1908

Still working on this one ; ) I completely fell in love with this dress!!! I'll have to list what book I found it from. One of my teachers had this book and this was one of my advanced projects. So glad to have found that they have reprinted it! I was jumping for joy in the bookstore in Bath, England at their Costume Museum! This also was made on a different dress form so the fit is a little different. The size is about an 8.

The first two layers of the front.

All the layers of the top of the dress.

Erte Mock-Up

This is a mock-up of an Erte design.

This was not made for this dress form.

It was made from a larger dress form-so naturally changes the fit.

"Ring of the Bishop"

Here are some renderings and pictures from the film I designed called “Ring of the Bishop.” It is currently running the Indie film circuit and has already won several awards. The picture to the right is when we first see the female demon lounging by the pool.

Here is another design from the movie with a chiffon overlay. It was neat how it looked like the scales were moving in the snakeskin fabric with the chiffon overlay.
