I was first inspired by a sheer Alexander Wang dress I came across in a magazine, as shown below. I wanted to design something like it, something daring, sexy and yet so high fashion at the same time, but I wasn't used to the idea of an entirely sheer dress last year, so I decided to go with something more conservative.

I used the same concept of employing velvet streaks to create a pattern to cover the breast area. My design was symmetrical, compared to the asymmetrical deign done by Alexander Wang. I also liked the idea of sheer sleeves that would show off the wearer's arms without having to go sleeveless. I created a more feminine look that was more sweet-looking. The bottom area of the dress is generally a bluish-purple bubble skirt that is meant to be more slim at the torso area and only "bubble up" more at the bottom of the dress.
