MEMORIES OF DEGAS
Meg Giry from Phantom of the Opera
PURPOSE:
Photoshoot at the University of Waterloo's Humanities Theatre
MATERIALS USED:
Repurposed wedding gown, slippers
 The finished dress, made to befit an 1880's ballet chorus girl. |  The original wedding dress, purchased at a thrift store for $10. The sleeves were removed and made into a hair bow, while the skirt was cut in half and layered together to create more volume. |  The finished dress, as modeled by Martina C. Satin slippers were bought, tea-stained ivory to match the dress, and blocked at the toes with foam. |

 |  The dress before hemming. A serger rolled hem was used to stop the chiffon from fraying, and create a nearly invisible hem for the dress. |  |
