As Time Turns Ensemble

An Avant-Garde Couture Statement by Caroline Williard
Seen at Sotheby’s Art & Beauty Behind Fashion 2023
Handmade | One-of-One | 12-Week Creation Time

A visceral blend of fashion, memory, and time, “As Tim Turns” is an avant-garde couture ensemble handmade by Caroline Williard and featured at Sotheby’s prestigious Art & Beauty Behind Fashion 2023**.

The look begins with a custom hand-printed jersey jumpsuit, layered in emotionally charged imagery: 9/11, surreal photography of clocks and hourglasses, fragments of Bill Clinton’s presidency, and moments that forever altered public consciousness. Accompanied by a matching jersey balaclava with a cutout for a high ponytail, it frames the face while anchoring the ensemble in bold intention.

Over it rests a striking clear vinyl overdress, featuring a sculpted black corset bust, deep black trim, and an illusion of 3d created exploding glass shards—each one painstakingly attached to appear mid-shatter. The entire composition speaks to history’s fragility and the enduring marks left by time.
