Structural Dress

This dress was inspired by the designer Mary Katrantzou. Over the summer, I took many photo's of buildings that I thought had an interesting look to them which I then made into drawings, prints, free machine samples and many more. My idea for this dress was to create and illusion of a smaller waist which I feel was successful. Using images of lamp posts I took at LACMA, I distorted the image to give it a little more depth, and I then heat pressed the image onto the fabric with the aid of a subliminal printer.

Along the two sides of the dresses, I free machined drawings of buildings that I thought would add an interesting effect to the garment as a whole.
