Description

Wedding dress created from pieces of the bride’s mothers dress and my own dress to create a totally different dress with all the elements requested by the bride incorporated into the final creation. No patterns were used, although an empire waisted dress owned by the bride was used to help draft the skirt portion of the dress.

Material Notes

Original lace and beads from the mother's dress were removed and then restitched on where it best suited the design. All fabrics used were from previously worn wedding gowns.

    Great project. This dress has so much more meaning than a store-bought one and looks pretty too!
