Pier 62 Collection

This garment was inspired by Manhattan's Pier 62.
I love to walk to the pier and watch light dance across the surface of the water.

This dress is made from bleached silk taffeta.
Bleaching silk is a very delicate process because the beach eats away at the silk. 
The bleach reveals a new color in the taffeta 
and the effect is made to look like light on the surface of water. 





Fabric dyed and sewn by me.
Modeled by Ashley Wilson.
