Model Amelia Gray Wears Ambitious Undercover Dress With Live Butterflies

Amelia Gray Hamlin American model

Model Amelia Gray's mini Undercover dress made a bold statement at a recent fashion event. Originally designed with live butterflies, the marigold dress has since been modified to feature roses. Despite the change, the dress remains eye-catching and unique.

One of the standout features of the dress is its ability to glow in the dark. However, this feature was somewhat overshadowed by the bright lights of the event's red carpet. The dress, often referred to as the 'terrarium' dress, served as the closing piece for Undercover's Spring-Summer 2024 show in Paris.

The dress has garnered additional attention by being featured on the cover of a hardcover book commemorating the Metropolitan Museum of Art's exhibit, 'Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.' This recognition further solidifies the dress's place in the fashion world.

Despite its popularity, the dress faced criticism from animal rights organization PETA. The initial design included live insects, which sparked controversy. In response to the backlash, designer Jun Takahashi issued an apology for the use of live insects in the dress.
