LILY SERPENT | Couture Evening Gown Pattern-Drafting & Construction Workbook/E book — US 10 / Medium–Large
LILY SERPENT draws inspiration from the intertwined symbolism of Lilith, Eve, and Adam, imagining the serpent coiled around Eden’s tree as a sculptural detail upon the gown. Ivory silk and blooming lilies evoke innocence, while the black serpent introduces temptation, mystery, and defiance—a poetic tension between beauty, desire, and the freedom to choose.
Bring a dramatic couture design to life with LILY SERPENT—a student-friendly workbook for creating an ivory silk-satin evening gown featuring dimensional lilies, translucent water droplets, and a poseable black fabric serpent.
Featuring my original sketches and 3D dress artwork, this workbook breaks the design into approachable stages, from measurements and pattern drafting to construction, decorative details, fitting, and finishing.
