Ebony Affairs Gown

I decided to enter into the L'oreal Melbourne fashion festival's 2010 competition "Spirit of the Black Dress" In order to fit the criteria entrants had to design and make a dress using outlined specifics of a sustainability elements, so I decided to use recycled items including my fabric and beads and Green electricity to power my machines as well incorporating as much hand sewing to reduce my electricity usage...and as you can see there was a lot of hand sewing involved with this particular garment, the Decolletage or often referred to as my stone collars was entirely hand sew'en by me.
