Dress A Day, Day 8: Beyond

Thursday, May 13

So much to say about this dress, so little of it in words. It is from Afghanistan, and comes to my closet via the amazing costume sale that happened in NY in 2004. We lined around the block and waited for hours to fill a paper bag purchased for $20 with whatever pleased our fancy. It is the dress I wear for my solo, Beyond, which has been both the wind and the wings that have carried my work the past couple of years. I love it. Methinks it loves me too.

Catherine Hoffmann (see Dress #2) wrote in suggesting I might try letting my dresses stand on their own a bit more and not cover them in curtains and the like, and so inspired this first wide shot.
