Description Being the last piece in my 'Court' collection, I wanted to make this dress to have a very strong presence.

I love evening and wedding wear, and so I really wanted that to be present in Fleur-di-lis; which is inspired by the Iris flower. It would have all the synthetic flowers, and be completely made of silk and satin. Just as sumptuous as the the garbs of Marie Antoinette made by Rose Bertin; who I was trying to bring into a modern context in my collection.

Please do not take, use or make my designs without my distinct permission. Thank you!!

Tools of the Trade: Copic Pens and Prismacolor Markers

I find it ironic to learn that a robe was inspired by an iris would be named after the liles!

I know I know... XDD But the color just seemed kind of...fun...to me and very fleur-di-lis-ish. I also read that at some point and time, the Iris was the symbol of the french monarchy as well as the fleur-di-lis icon. So I kinda combined the two...
