This was an Otis thesis project in which Yeohlee Tang herself mentored us. The project consisted of recycling ready made materials and making a new piece. I used various vintage beaded ivory colored dresses and fine lace to construct a new evening dress. I made the base out of natural colored organdy and then slip stitched together all the pieces. The sleeves were a train unto themselves, which with the bottom of the dress included many lace flowers sewn in thoughtful places.
