Queen Akasha Inspired Outfit

Iridescent abalone panels catch the light against draped silk chiffon, while a structured headdress crowned with gold coins and filigree turns the whole ensemble into something regal and otherworldly. Charity Grace builds the headdress from stiffened felt and a hair band base, layering abalone sheet, wire-strung coins, and filigree pieces secured with E6000 glue. The skirt and sleeves come together with simple straight stitches and clever elastic channels, so the whole look is as wearable as it is striking.
