RFL 2009 Adephagia Auction Gown By Nicky Ree

About the Designing Nicky Ree "Adephagia" Gown for Relay for Life 2009

This year I created a gown based on the theme set by the RFL Clothing Fair Organisers. The theme I selected is Gluttony.

Adephagia in Greek mythology was the goddess and personification of gluttony. Not much is known about her, and is only mentioned once as having a temple on the island of Sicily where she was worshipped alongside Demeter, the goddess of grain and fertility. It is likely then that while gluttony is associated with self-indulgence or excess, in actual worship Adephagia may instead have been revered as a goddess of agricultural bounty.

With this in mind I created a gown using the graphic motif of grapes, draping the luscious vines of grapes round the soft curves of the gown. Rich, fertile and luscious is the theme for this gown.

The gown is no transfer. There are two ways you can wear this gown, with system skirt or without system skirt.

The photos attached to this note will help you visualise how it should look once worn.




You will note that I have made some hair decoration in the form of grapes. I will include these items in the set as an extra just incase you want to attain the same look as in the poster. Like the gown itself, this will be mod copy only. Note this will only fit the hair style I used in the advert (Sky Everett Designs-Temptress Blonde-Wheat). If you have another form of hair style, you will need to place the grapes and its leaves on the hair you have yourself.
