This is Widow, a stunning gown created by Susie MacMurray

The dress is made of black Napa leather and more than 94 pounds of adamantine dressmaker pins (approximately 100,000). While you cannot actually wear it, you can view the dress at the Victoria & Albert Museum’s Power of Making exhibition in London through January 2, 2012.

This reminds me of the Some/One dog tag armor piece at the Seattle Art Museum.

    I read ‘adamantine’ as ‘adamantium’ and suddenly really wanted that for my craft room.
