Modern Cleopatra

I was asked to make an Egyptian inspired dress last Thursday. Client wanted something gold and she'll be needing it on the 25th of May. I'm not sure if I can make  it on the said date because I'm running my ass out doing a lot of things- office and Chiccat. Chiccat is my RTW line which will be launch soon..hehehehe=D



I made a little research about Egyptian's fashion. I loved their style. Egyptians has a thing for  patterns, collars and jewelry. Decoration in Egyptian dress was chiefly confined to the collar. I made a modern fancy Egyptian dress.





   I added those chunky cuffs to achieve a very elegant Egyptian vibe. I didn't make an all gold dress because it's too loud. She'll be attending a wedding. 


 Have you notice the collar??heheheh The Egyptian collars was highly ornamental.Decorative ornamental collar completes the Egyptian picture. This is how I interpret a modern Egyptian dress. I'm a big fan of Cleopatra, so I'll name this dres after her..heheheh I'm a huge fan of her coquetry. 


*PS:I'm thinking of making an Egyptian collection..hehehe
