Despite the use of approximately 10 yards of silk taffeta, the dress remains surprisingly light.

I attached 18th-century panniers to lift the draped rosettes and give the dress more magnitude.

The bustier is fully boned and includes an underwire and foam cups.

This collection seeks to reimagine traditional craftsmanship within a modern context. Through meticulous attention to detail, innovative fabric manipulation, and thoughtful silhouette construction, the collection aims to showcase the timeless elegance and artistic heritage of Wedgwood porcelain in a wearable and visually stunning form.
