The flowers have begun to blacken, but something is still making them bloom. Great, feverish blossoms of sulphurous yellow emerge from a tangled wilderness of dark green and shadow, their beauty made all the more disturbing by the unmistakable suggestion of decay. The After the Veil Parlour Dress is a vision of poisoned Victorian romance, its magnificent floral tapestry recalling those strange, airless rooms where the curtains have remained drawn for decades, and something pale and spectral can still be glimpsed moving behind the lace.

There is a delicious unease to such extravagant beauty, as though the flowers themselves have absorbed some terrible secret from the darkness. Too splendid to wither, too corrupted to remain innocent, they flourish in that strange hour between life and disappearance, when even the most beautiful things begin to take on the aspect of an apparition.
