The Steve Dress by Black Milk Clothing is a unique piece to don this summer.
The dress, designed by James Lillis, features celebrity Steve Buscemi’s bust on both the front and back. The one of a kind design focuses heavily on Steve Buscemi’s eyes, which are ironically (and accurately) placed directly above the wearer's chest. The dress features a white backdrop to the Steve Buscemi print that covers 90% of the body.
The Steve Dress by Black Milk Clothing is a unique find that would take an eclectic fashionista to don.
Implications - Celebrities who have notable features are even more so popular than traditional celebs as they prove to be more memorable in audience's minds. Celebrities are always a sure-fire way to gain publicity; however, this is not always available. Companies can thus look toward mimicking celebrity exposure with their campaigns through extensive media exposure.
