Source catalog description

This description refers to material held by Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Visual details below describe the original material.

A color photograph of Madisin Rian posing in a Gucci dress in the surf of Atlantic Beach, New York, captured by Dana Scruggs for The Zoe Report. Rian is depicted in full length, standing at the center of the image with her arms fully extended outwards on either side of her, palms upwards. She is facing forward, looking directly at the viewer, and has a serious expression on her face. Rian’s head is shaved and she is wearing a silky, lime green, dress. The long sleeve, wrap dress has puff shoulders, wide cuffs, and falls just below her knees. The dress’s two long, matching ties are knotted on her proper left side and Rian holds a tie end in each of her hands. The fabric of the dress and ties are billowing in the wind. Her feet are covered by an incoming wave.
