Imagine a Byzantine Midsummer's Dress

Macrame comes in and out of fashion these days; it's usually used in clothing as a visual comment on funkiness - a throwback to the kitschy fun of the flower child era.
This cute tie dye dress is from Swank Boutique in Columbia, MO.

















But take it a step towards the divine: imagine creating a sumptuous Byzantine collar for a flowing Fortuny-pleated silk gown by knotting the yoke and upper back with strands of Gudebrod silk cording (size FF or FFF) smattered with a cascade of sparkly Swarovskis...
