Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This wedding dress was made in 100% silk peau de soie + French alencon lace + lots of hand work!!
The aplications were all hand cut from the piece of lace, and also hand sewn into the dress. The top lace part, was all hand worked to avoid seams and to make it look as if it had been made with the shape inside. I really love to work lace!!! I feel like making an sculpture, shaping every bit of it!! just love it. The lovely train was about 1metre long, and the French Tulle veil, was a bit longer, with all the borders in same lace….again: all hand worked. I hope you like it, as much as I enjoyed working with it!!
Material Notes
100% silk peau de seau, french alencon lace, french tulle.

What a sensational dress, my friend. The bride had to be thrilled. I love the peau de soie and the gorgeous lace. The very popular off shoulder styling suits this gown so well. I wish I knew how you hand work the lace. You are brilliant! Please give me a lesson some day! Sorry this is so late in coming. Ray has been in the hospital. I’m finally catching up with things now.

I worked with many wedding gowns here in US, but they were always overdone with lace. This one is absolutely beautiful because of its simplicity, the back is spectacular.
