Affinity Garment: Beaded Gown

My inspiration for this came from the captivating waves of the ocean- its reflective qualities, ever-changing colors, sounds, and movements. I captured the glimmering surface of the ocean through hand embellishments: sewing each reflective bead on individually.

Materials: secondhand yardage- blue polyester, rayon blend | white polyester chiffon | clear and white beads
