Final Dress.

First try working with metallic lame fabric not entirely finished first try as didn't want to waste time bagging it out. Looked nice in the silver but for the final decided to go for gold. I wanted gold to give a sense of regality and power to the dress. The piece reminds me of a priests robes (in previous designs the dress also had a cape yet this distracted to much from the laser cutting so was removed) and I felt the gold gave an earthly warmth to the piece which the silver lacked as I felt it was much to cold and made the piece more sci-fi than I had envisioned.

 I love how the light plays through the laser cut sections and reflects of the metallic fabric.
