The Botticelli Dress by Nik Bentel Studio

The Botticelli Dress by Nik Bentel Studio No tag, but fits like women’s Small 1 of 100 dresses made From website: WHEN THE RENAISSANCE PAINTER, SANDRO BOTTICELLI, CREATED THE BIRTH OF VENUS IN 1486, HE ACCIDENTALLY BECAME A FASHION DESIGNER. NEARLY 500 YEARS LATER IN 2021, NIK BENTEL DECIDED TO RECREATE THE DRESS, CLOAK, AND CHEMISE FEATURED UPON THE HORA OF SPRING. POSITIONED AT THE RIGHT OF BOTICELLI'S MASTERPIECE, IS ONE OF THE THREE HORAE (HOURS)––THE GREEK MINOR GODDESSES OF THE SEASONS, THE NATURAL ORDER, AND THE ATTENDANTS OF VENUS. BOTICELLI'S FLORAL DECORATION UPON HER DRESS, SUGGESTS THAT SHE IS THE HORA OF SPRING. IN EXTRACTING THE HORA'S ELEMENTAL DRESS FROM THIS PAINTING, BENTEL GIVES BOTICELLI'S MASTERY NEW LIFE AND MEANING, AND ALLOWS ONE TO BECOME THE HORA OF SPRING THEMSELF.
