ASHI STUDIO “Fashion is Art” Dress 2026 pls help me get out of debt donating to: ko-fi.com/fashionrunways or dinahlance-shop.fourthwall.com “This couture dress draws its inspiration from bronze sculptures in Indian culture and depictions of deities, reinterpreting their characteristic lines and draped forms in a contemporary way. The curves and folds have been carefully studied and translated into the structure of the garment, creating a silhouette that feels both fluid and defined. The entire piece is built around a bronze tone, treated to resemble naturally oxidized metal. Shades of blue and green are hand-painted using a trompe-l’œil technique to evoke the patina seen on ancient statues, giving the surface depth and variation. From the construction of the corset to the draping of the skirt, each element required precision and coordination. Over 200 hours were dedicated to crafting the garment, with an additional 200 hours spent on hand painting to achieve the final finish. Developed over several months, this piece reflects a balance between craftsmanship, material research, and a clear visual direction.”

Be the person who still tries. After failure, after frustration, after disappointment, after exhaustion, after heartache, be the person who musters up the courage to believe that a new attempt can manifest a new outcome. Be the person who still tries.
