Matt Sutton - 2004 "Junon" Auction Doll4 viewsJunon was based on an amazing Christian Dior ballgown from 1949~ The gown is made of a white silk satin shell. Over the shell, there are nearly 25 individually hand-sewn petals decorating the gown. Each petal is made of a layer of cream colored net, with two layers of the palest blue tulle added to give it a glimmer of color. Each petal was then hand beaded with FIVE colors of 3mm sequins--- black,
two shades of the palest blue, clear, and clear-iridescent! Over 10,000 sequins and beads were hand sewn onto the gown.

Matt Sutton for 2007 National Barbie Convention3 views"Des Etoiles" is a sumptuous confection of silk and crystal. The daring sweetheart bodice leads the eye down to the dropped waist, where a sash of shimmering chiffon is punctuated with heavily encrusted crystal brooches. The full ball gown is comprised of yards of raw-edged layers of pewter-colored silk and silver dotted chiffon. Hand-sewn miniature mirrored sequins, Swarovski rhinestones, and two tones of smoky-colored Swarovski crystals float effortlessly over each of the layers.
