Since the design of this dress was now some what finalized, it was time to focus on what materials I'd be using.

The dress's main feature was going to be the cowl effect at the back, because of this, the dress will need to be made of light weight non stretch fabrics such as cotton, linen, polyester-chiffon, rayon etc.

In order to stay true to the colours of the Pallus Athena painting, the dress will be made up of a patchwork of mainly gold- coloured fabric with some red, black and orange fabric to complement the main colour.

The necklace will be made up of a solid neck cuff and chains of various thicknesses will be attached to it.

To go with the gold colour scheme of the dress, the neckpiece will be made using brass sheet metal with copper accents. The chains will be gold in colour, to match the metal of the necklace and the fabric of the dress.
