Pre-Raphaelite inspired dress

This dress was made as part of a school project in which I looked at art-influenced fashion. I decided to make my own art-influenced fashion so chose the Pre-Raphaelites and after a little research this is my outcome. I used a light-weight cotton for the base of the dress which I drafted myself. I then put this on my mannequin and draped chiffon over the top of it. Next, I spent hours hand sewing it down and then finished it off as I would with any other strapless, boned dress. Fingers crossed I get a good grade.
