Look 1

Rendered in black crinoline, this sculptural couture gown expands into exaggerated hip structures embedded with hand-sculpted faces inspired by clown iconography and the uncanny valley. Distorted expressions emerge seamlessly from the silhouette, dissolving the boundary between garment and apparition. Drawing from theatrical costume and surrealist couture, the piece balances tension and elegance through architectural volume, controlled structure, and meticulous hand construction. A study in dark femininity and sculptural form, the look reflects Atelier Sleeba’s signature approach to avant-garde haute couture.
