the little black dress project
dresses that transgress the boundaries they once held

"tits and ass, hips and bones, the little black dress is an eraser of women's lives and experiences, distilling her shape into a generic visual commodity.

the isloation of the body is alluring, but lacking, underestimating our ability to become aroused by the truth of women's lives. this show posits reality as provocative. creating mystery beyond the neutralized physical, these 13 dresses re-discover the emotional, sensual, erotic, violent, intellecutal, playful realities of women's lives."
