Description A dress I made last year.

It's floor length, and made to fit me, so Australian size 8-10
The material of the dress is a rayon/cotton blend, with mesh netting over the top of embroidered flowers.

The binding and belt loops are ice blue/green satin, whilst the sash is a thick strip of ice blue/green ribbon.

At the back is a 41cm invisible zip and hook and eye

I wore it as a corpse bride costume for my friends Gothic themed birthday party, but it can be worn as a fantasy costume, historical or any theme really!

I'm really proud of this dress - it fits quite nice and is really comfortable to wear!

I will be posting photos of me modelling it very soon, for now these are candid shots HIDEOUS shots, might I add. Sorry. :S

I think it's a lovely dress! Perfect for the occasion. I think the best part is the texturing and detail you've added. I miss the times I used to sew. I should make my own costumes again. Keep up the great work.

Thanks so much!
Seriously, go and sew! It's so relaxing, and you get something so worthwhile out of it.
Go back and make some... I'd love to see them!
