It's inspired by Circus Freaks, Carnival rides, Marionette Dolls, Avant Garde styling, and Film Noir. The last photo is of the cute doll that initially inspired the piece. I'm keeping the prototype, but I did make a pattern for this dress and can custom make this style in other sizes up to an XL (40" bust, 34 waist). I will be taking better quality photos of this piece shortly. This custom made garment will take up to 8 weeks to complete. The black silk dupioni was all hand pleated by me, and have been angled chevron style at each seam. The double ruffled collar has been interfaced into the neckline so it stands up high around the neck rather than flopping down (though if you prefer this look, the collar can be pushed down). It is fully lined in satin, has an invisible bottom hem, zips up at the side, and closes down the back with 30 glass ball buttons. The gathered cap sleeves are lined with black and white striped satin and the waist belt is hand beaded.
