The ties to it’s history create great challenges for the contemporary arts which are often shadowed by the past yet inspired by it at the same time. This body of work combines the two worlds of old and new and puts forth ideas as to how these two. This collection also focuses on the impact of accessories. Big, bold pieces have the ability to dramatically change a look making the dress the after thought.

Each piece is one of a kind in this collection and created using various techniques and methods of traditional couture. Sara Amrhein’s designs cross both cultural and artistic boarders.
