Dress of Success, or is it just a Sheer Illusion?
Reclaimed wedding gown, black out curtains, floss, remnant sheers
50 luxury brand logos adorn this reclaimed wedding gown. They form a bold pattern, easily seen and recognized. Overlaying this design, are 60 sheer circles with words of worth stitched on them. The conversation is about what we see versus what we should look for. What do we value versus what we may overlook. Where do you stand? Are designer goods and brands more important than the qualities of bravery or compassion? What did you notice first? A wedding gown was used to imply that these 60 words of worth are perhaps what one should look for in a partner rather than what is owned, driven or worn. The logos and words are all hand cut and stitched. And yes, the words of worth outnumber the worth of goods. The headpiece features a definition, “Worth: The value of something measured by its qualities or by the esteem in which it is held.”
