The silk dress is undecorated aside from cloth-covered buttons (decorative only; the bodice closes with hooks and eyes) and fringe on the edges of the pagoda sleeves. The bell-shaped symmetry of the skirt is indicative

Dr. Colleen Darnell on Instagram: "Classical splendor @nypl captured by the amazing @mordecai_nuccio; I wear a dress designed for me by @shopmorphew from fragments of late Victorian trim and remnants of an incredible Art Nouveau fabric. The music is from Miklós Rózsa’s soundtrack to the 1951 movie Quo Vadis. Where I raise my arm in front of the exedra, a slow hymn is introduced. Although it is the tune for a Christian hymn in the film, it is in fact one of the few complete extant pieces of music

I wear an amazing headpiece by @veriteehill, which includes dyed ostrich and peacock feathers. Ostrich feathers were important in ancient Egyptian iconography and ritual. Besides being a hieroglyph that can write “maat” (justice/cosmic balance) and “shu” (light/luminous space), ostrich feathers were placed in fans that, when carried behind a statue, s

Dr. Colleen Darnell on Instagram: "I am so thrilled to share my interview with @whatwomenwantmag, representing 16 years of women’s empowerment in Egypt.
