So here's a 1995 snapshot of me in an outfit I made for a museum benefit that won the Best Handmade Costume Award. The dress was floor length and tie-dyed velvet; and the wings, which moved, were strapped on with a red satin ribbon. Each paper feather was cut and glued down, a process which took two days; and the inside, which you can't see of course, was copper foil covered with lacy rice paper. At the time I still painted abstracts, but clearly had angels on my mind.
