A full-length direct-flash party photograph of ABNiamh, a fictional 20-year-old Irish Traveller woman, arriving outside an English function hall decorated with an enormous black-and-gold balloon arch. She wears a custom-made skin-tight black glossy stretch-satin mini dress with narrow straps, a low sweetheart neckline and a very short upper-thigh hem. Large moulded gold-coloured plastic scrolls, oversized acrylic gold flowers and raised leaf shapes are individually sewn across the neckline, down the sides and around the hem; small stitch loops attaching them to the fabric remain visible. Dense round gold sequins and clear rhinestones fill the spaces between the rigid decorations. Two large curved waist cutouts remain open between the embellished bodice and fitted skirt, connected by narrow black side bands. Gold strappy heels, big gold hoop earrings and a small rigid gold clutch. Her dark-brown hair is piled into a huge curly beehive updo with long curled tendrils beside her cheeks. Heavy dark brows, thick strip lashes, frosty gold eyeshadow and glossy lined pink lips. She holds a proud, slightly haughty expression, chin lifted and one corner of her mouth raised. Adult guests, parked cars, gold throne chairs and towering artificial roses fill the entrance behind her. Bright white flash reveals the shiny fabric, plastic decorations and natural skin texture.
