Although Cinderella may not have ever reached the ball in one of Karen LaMonte's glass dresses, I can't help but think they were made just for her. These absolutely stunning creations are perfectly at home in the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
With a ghostly air, Karen LaMonte's glass dresses drape over invisible female forms, creating the illusion of movement that gives each dress life. The fact that they are life-sized makes the experience even more poignant.
