Pictorial seed-bead gown, chain harness, cathedral train.

The Palais — a gown crossed with Carnival construction. Chain is built into the dress, not worn as jewelry. The train is cut as architecture. Original Ooh La La. This is not a tribe’s suit. Custom color is included.

How we make it

Bead pictorial and 3D fields on canvas like a masking patch, then mount them as a gown. Gold chain links the panels and hangs as a harness. One hip is cut away so the understructure reads. Train is hanging beaded plates, not a sweep of cloth. This is the bead suit made to walk a ball.
