Golden Bookworm Gowns

The Golden Book Gown is Made Up of Illustrations from Classic Kids' Books

Although I cannot remember ever reading a Golden Book as a child, I find myself quite enamored with Ryan Novelline's Golden Book Gown. The Golden Book Gown is made entirely out of illustrations from Golden Books sewn together, making it a truly unique and captivating piece.

The Golden Book Gown has a surface area of 22,000 square-inches and is wonderfully colorful thanks to the metallic gold thread that holds it all together. The gown is incredibly eye-catching due to the massive amount of illustrations that it's made of. Fans of Golden Books will no doubt be able to spot a scene from at least one of their childhood favorites here. As for me, I am left eagerly awaiting the arrival of the Bernstein Bears evening gown. Make it happen Ryan Novelline.
