In the renowned wedding magazine Hochzeit, Ekaterina Moré and fashion designer Lilia Sabantina’s art project was presented as the "world's first canvas wedding dress" – a creative milestone that uniquely combines fashion and painting.
The report features the spectacular wedding dress with the painted "Eva" – a vibrant work by artist Ekaterina Moré, created not on a classic stretcher frame but on a custom-made wedding dress made of primed canvas. The idea: A painting that becomes wearable. A dress that becomes art.
A wearable work of art for the modern Eve
The idea for this project arose during a creative exchange between two St. Petersburg natives in Düsseldorf: The internationally active fashion designer Lilia Sabantina and the renowned painter Ekaterina Moré combined their talents to create a dress that is not only wearable but also expressive – a symbol of femininity, seduction, and self-confidence.
The wedding dress is made of real canvas, carefully sewn, draped, and painted with acrylics by Ekaterina Moré. The motif depicts a modern Eve: sensual, proud, with red hair and an apple – embedded in strong colors and floral symbols.
The magazine Hochzeit praises the project as an "extraordinary work of art" that boldly bridges traditional bridal fashion and contemporary art with attitude.
Wedding meets art – a dress with a message
"My female portraits are meant to inspire, not decorate," says Ekaterina Moré. "In this project, I was able to transfer my visual language to a whole new medium – not on canvas with a wooden frame, but on fabric that moves, wears, lives."
The dress is more than a fashion statement. It embodies a new, self-confident type of woman – an Eve who is not seduced but decides for herself. The magazine particularly highlights the combination of symbolic depth, craftsmanship, and social relevance.
Support from the bridal fashion store "Honeymoon" in Düsseldorf
The project was supported and exhibited by the Düsseldorf bridal fashion store Honeymoon. Thus, an idea became a public appearance that attracted attention far beyond the art and fashion scene – not least thanks to the prominent coverage in Hochzeit magazine.
