"Designs on the Future"

Laura Vickerson
Snow White and Rose Red
Inspired by the resurgence of romantic gothic literature, Laura Vickerson created a double costume set based upon the classical fairy tale of the sisters Snow White and Rose Red. The work consisted of a cape belonging to Rose Red that was constructed from red and white rose petals and a corset made of wax for Snow White.
