♡ Melanie Griffith's dinner dress from Shining Through (1992) was just stunning. the silk georgette and gauze over crepe de chine gave a lovely soft feel. This dress is also hand painted with flowers that vine over the bodice, around the waist and cascade down the left skirt front; and then it's studded with diamonte beads and sequins. Just lovely.
♡ Picture 2: this is not embroidery, but painted-on flowers studded with glittering bits that give it a 3D look. This close-up shows all the paint color details
