The Bride
In this second of the two-part Groom & Bride series, the Bride mask is featured, inspired by and using leftover materials from my wedding gown. I designed and created the gown as a modular ensemble of pieces, built around a corseted silhouette with removable trumpet flounce skirt and sleeves. The gown was built on a base of painted denim, lined in red rose and skull cotton print and with an overlayer of black net with cotton lace edging on top. The gown was embellished with over 2,000 hand-applied jet Swarovski crystals.
The Bride Mask
The Bride mask was created using materials left over from the wedding gown, built on top of a neoprene base. The bottom layer is painted denim, with an overlayer of the cotton lace embellished black mesh. Jet rhinestones are individually glued on top of the lace, mimicking the detailing on the wedding gown.
