| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Oyster dress |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | The image illustrates the visual appearance of the shellfish dress to the reader for identification and educational purposes. As the oyster dress is based on the shellfish dress, it is important to see the original |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
1) The dress is a unique visual design. Any duplicate would be an obviously inferior knock-off, and using a photograph of one would be misleading to the reader.
2) The dress was haute couture and never commercially mass-produced. Only two exist and neither is on public display. It is not possible to simply purchase one or visit somewhere to photograph it. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | This file will only be used in two articles, the one for the collection and the one for the dress, and at a lower resolution than the original. |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
1) The dress itself is not (and was never) commercially available, so a photo of it can't harm the McQueen label's ability to profit from the design. Even if it was, a simple photo can't replace the actual ensemble. The original took 3 people a month's work and cost £45,000 so it is unlikely it could be knocked off based on the photo.
2) The last museum exhibition the dress appeared in closed in 2015. The use of the photo cannot detract from ticket sales for a long-closed exhibit. 3) The photo is publicly and freely available on the magazine's and the museum's website. |
