Abstract

The Royal Wedding dress was designed within a 20 piece conceptual apparel line, of which three garments were constructed. The garment was designed in response to the concept of modern royalty (Prince William and Kate Middleton) being wed in a time of heightened moral and social values, harkening those of mid-century America. Therefore, the garment toes the line between tradition and modernity with a rebellious nod towards 1960’s mod stylings.

Keywords: Mod, Modern, apparel design
