LAS OLAS FOOD AND WINE FESTIVAL 2007

Shida is modeling a one of a kind "Corn" cocktail dress. I was inspired to create this one-of-a-kind cocktail dress out of corn from the process of shucking corn husk. I was also inspired to create this garment out of corn from the new textile industry developments in utilizing corn husk as a fiber for creating fabric. This mini corn cocktail dress has pleating detailing along the bust line of the corset top, corn-woven cinched waist, and layers of corn husk over a pleated hemline. Along with the cocktail dress, Shida is wearing corn product accessories designed by herself. The accessories include corn flowered shoes with pleating detailing and hoop oven earrings.
