PRINT CHARMEUSE EVENIG DRESS

The dress is finished. Thank God!! I did not think I will be done with the dress. I was designing the dress as I was sewing it, and keep changing my mind about the ruffles [which are made out of silk chiffon of the same print], did I want one, two or three? How wide did I want them? I settle on two ruffles, the first is 4” wide the other 6”. I did made them smaller, but did not like the proportion on the dress, so had to take it apart and start all over again, part of the design process.










After it was done, I did not like the way it looks, something was missing. I want the lace to be beaded, took a piece of the lace that was left, try few bead work till I got the right “feel” [keeping the light, soft and transparency of the dress]














The fact that my mind was on another design did not help moving alone faster with the dress, I already working on that, will keep you posted.

Beautiful - so soft and feminine. I know how it is to try to finish and project and already be designing the next one. It is hard! All you want to do is finish and get started on the new one.

Thats just the way I felt finishing this dress. It is like "falling out of love with it", and wanting to move on with "the new" love!
