I thought that the best way to incorporate<br />

"celebration" into my garment would be to<br />

design a party dress. When I think of<br />

celebrations, I imagine extravagant gatherings<br />

and people dressed in beautiful garments. My<br />

garment allows a woman to "let loose"<br />

because of the sheer bodice, open back, and<br />

flirty skirt. I wanted my appliques to resemble<br />

cute illustrations of bees and flowers. The<br />

embroidered flowers and bees scattered<br />

among the bodice of the dress are a playful<br />

element but also add a sexy component that<br />

draws attention to the overall look, just barely<br />

covering delicate areas around the bust. For<br />

more visually appealing aesthetics, I also<br />

incorporated beading in the flower and bee<br />

appliques.
