This is, I think my favorite dress...Its Glamorous, but not too pretty.
It is made from 2 colours of Chiffon and Black and Grey tulle....
A Lot of Colours but, they somehow work...
it was intended to be backless with a plunging front and a 'twenties' hankercheif hem...
I think it does really work well and has a fashion/historical/beautiful thing ? going on...
I Simply over-locked the edges, and used this as a detail...Too do this i created more seams than unnecessary, purely for detail....
This dress originally started out in simply Navy Chiffon with the grren as an accent and lined with a nude silk...but it didnt really work...thus resulting in me ripping up what i had made (as usual) and out of pure despair, I started draping on the stand (I have no pictures...but i know i should have documented this !)
From this...
To this...
I really like this finished garment...It really was difficult to work with the chiffon, and find a way of manipulating it to create the vision i had in my head...
I think it has a look of one of my favorite dresses, and most inspiring to me...The Green dress Keira Knightly wore in Atonement.
