Inspiration: A cumulus of creamy white and dark gray clouds with lightening piercing through a stormy sky

Purpose: To explore fabric manipulation and surface design to create the visual depth

​

To simulate the visual depth of cloud texture, fabric was manipulated by ruching in a specific ratio of self and backing fabrics.

Swirl-shaped machine embroidery was added on the midriff panels to symbolize the wind.

Random assortments of silver and crystal bead strands were applied around the skirt hem area to characterize raindrops.
