This couture looks is inspired by the South African National Flower, the Protea.
The design features a fully boned orange taffeta bunny suit as the base, with detachable braided tubing that act as the anther and stamen of the flower. On top of this is a boned and corseted belt made of velvet with various size petals made with a buckram base.
