“Are you wearing the—”

a thin fair skinned model with straight dark hair back wears an off white tshirt style dress in sheer organza i think with intermittent strings of beads, that comes to her mid calf. there is a faintly painted or printed outline in airbrushed rainbow colors of a figure, and the faint letters artf across the chest. the model stands on a black parquet floor with palm fronts behind her, and holds a platinum colored pleated metallic bag. this is from the lynda benglis inspired dior haute couture show, and the figure alluded to on the dress is benglis, posing with a giant double dildo for a work she published in artforum in 1974 as an advertisement. but none of that is really legible in this five-figure made to order garment
