Diamonds Are Forever Gala
Thesis Statement
The theme for my senior thesis exhibition is: “Lily Black Presents Diamonds Are Forever Gala!” This will be a high-class, red carpet themed exhibition in which I plan to present my collection of gowns, evening wear garments, along with furs and diamond accessories. In the showcase I will be presenting red carpet gowns for women. I came up with this concept because I always loved watching the gowns worn on the red carpet, during the Met Gala, and from other award shows. My collection will include the theme colors red, blue, yellow, small pieces of black and white, as well as some sparkly metallic fabrics. I am also including diamond and fur accessories such as necklaces, bracelets, and bags.

- I fell in love with the old, glamorous, Hollywood- style of fashion and I am also inspired by street wear, and sportswear. Places like Paris, and Los Angeles are further inspiration. I am also inspired by the work of the late designer CoCo Chanel. I have always wanted to design wedding gowns, and “over- the- top” prom dresses, and I plan to continue to use this platform for more work in the future.
