Leta Ramos is attracted to vintage clothing. This purple dress, with crewel embroidery flowers on it, was acquired by her from a thrift store in Oakland. She was taken by all of the hand work. The dress is handmade; the seams are stitched in turquoise colored embroidery yarn. The sleeves have an unusual and interesting cut. The detail at the neck ads to the appeal of the garment; tucking is done to show varied colored stitches..
