    A beautiful sight to see with a refined finish and an elegant drape. Worthy of worship draped in this divine dress!

    It’s lovely! Looks a bit Egyptian in the full length shot, very cool :) How did you do the neckline and straps? I would love to try something like that!

      I followed a basic burda bust pattern then I drew the neck band with the required width 4cm to the shoulder line then I joined the back straps (a straight line 4 cm width rectangle). Then I joined (baste) the neckband with the bust in the center front

      I bought the beads and the sparkling parts separately then I sewed it on the neck band and the upper bust
      I sewed the beads on the fabric it took me about two weeks working on it

      i mean did you sew the beads on the fabric or did you bought like the beaded strap
      (i would love to find something like that to buy!)
