"A Touch of Midas Gold"

The following dress was inspired by an exhibit at the FIT museum: Madame Gres "Sphinx of Fashion". I wanted to focus on her attention to Greco-Roman design and it was very interesting researching before the actual creation of the dress. My project was entitled "A Touch of Midas Gold" which references the Greek Myth of King Midas, who's very touch can turn anything into gold. My dress, and the other dresses in the collection I designed, include rings of gold bias-cut satin. Close-up of Front
