Beetle Wing Dress
This dress, made for Ellen Terry, using 1000 beetle wings has just been restored, at quite a sum, and put on display at The Ellen Terry Museum in Smallhythe, just near me. I plan a works outing to see it ....
Just catching up with the blogging world. This dress is amazing but must have been very fragile. Those wing cases look like they could blow away in a breeze.
