Anatomical Dress

This slip dress by Toolgrrl just blows my mind. Below is the artist's statement about the series this piece is part of:


“The Dream Anatomy series explore these imagined realms inside the body. Because these garments are meant to be worn, the boundary between the internal and the external is blurred. The invisible is made visible: wear your inside on the outside. By using women’s slips and nighties, articles that were not originally intended for public life, I am playiing with the line between the public and the private arenas.”

few days ago i saw a cycler with a lycra t-shirt and it had lungs painted on back and front of it. and i thought same thing - my prom dress should have been like this - with painted inner parts of body. :)
but i like this 3d version better.

That would make quite a statement at a prom!! I wish I would have been ballsy enough to wear something like that back in high school!! : )
