Resin case sculpture with vintage Italian dress
About the Item
In the heart of an art exhibition, there stands a mesmerizing resin display panel, an exquisite shrine to a bygone era of Italian fashion. With four delicate holes at its ends, it delicately clings to the gallery walls, a silent sentinel guarding a precious secret within.
As you step closer, your eyes are immediately drawn to the captivating centerpiece, a relic from the 1990s that once graced the glamorous streets of Italy. This is no ordinary dress; it is a symbol of an era that set the fashion world on fire, a testament to the creativity and artistry that defined Italian couture. Yet, strangely, neither the name of the brilliant designer nor the skilled hands of its maker are apparent. It seems as if the dress has chosen to remain anonymous, its allure transcending the need for a creator's label. The dress emerges from the depths of the shrine, an elegant and bewitching black ruffle dress with a bodice that enslaves the senses. The ruffles cascade like a waterfall, each layer a testament to the craftsmanship that once brought it to life. The bodice, a sculpted masterpiece, wraps around the wearer's form like a lover's embrace, leaving an indelible mark on the memory of anyone who beholds it. Continuing to explore this enchanting exhibition, the gaze moves to the back of the case. Here the artist has left his mark, splashes of paint that dance like whispers in the wind. These splashes of color tell a story of collaboration, of the artist's desire to merge her own creativity with the timelessness of the dress. It is as if the artist sought to capture the essence of a moment, a fleeting burst of inspiration, and immortalize it in this sacred space.
This dress, encased in resin, transcends the boundaries of fashion and art. It is a symbol of the beauty, elegance and indomitable creative spirit that runs through the veins of Italian fashion history. It is a relic of a time when the dress was more than just a fabric; it was a statement, a work of art.

- Alexsander Danel Austin Productions Inc Orchide Sculpture AP3590 Fashionista 90sBy Alexsander DanelLocated in Port Saint Lucie, FLThis fabulous 30 inch sculpture of a high fashion woman was produced by Austin Productions and designed by Alexsander Danel in 1990. From our research, this piece is called ORCHIDE, likely from their high fashion collection. The piece stands appx 30in tall and the base is 10in wide. In very good condition for its 27+ years of age, we note some scratches, rubs and tiny dings here and there as you would expect from a vintage sculpture that has been handled, yet it still displays beautifully. Our price reflects this "less than pristine" condition. No paperwork or stickers on bottom, but signed at base AUSTIN PROD INC 1990 and A DANEL...Category
