This dress was a great collaboration between the customer receiving it and myself.
She had some great ideas that didn't turn out to be too hard and they look great.
I do have to admit I'm not looking forward to sewing velvet again, it's a pain!
She needed it to be bigger than her measurements so it has an optional insert in the back.
The sleeve band is covered in a gold lace to give it some extra spunk.
The Cape is optional, it has snaps at the shoulders to hold the weight and pins in the center front so it won't flip up.
She also asked for little beads along the collar as well for an extra touch of sweetness.
