A one-of-a-kind, hand-painted silk dress by Angelos Tsakiris, part of his 2017 debut capsule collection inspired by the works of Joan Miró. The dress is crafted from silk taffeta, which was softened through a special treatment before being meticulously painted by hand. The fabric was spread across a large surface, outlined in pencil, and then painted in multiple layers, requiring over a month to complete. The dress was never intended for mass production and remains a collectible piece, representing the intersection of fashion and fine art.
