We designed this dress together. My daughter lives 6 hrs from me so we had to scan and email pics to each other to build it. My other two daughters, (her sisters), tried it on for the fittings. She finally got to try it on 4 days before the wedding and thank goodness it fit her well. It was a wonderful experience and a labor of love.
My dressform was essential to the process.

It reminds me of a Spectra Vs Forrester Wedding Dress contest from the Bold and the Beautiful. And to pull this amazing dress off…you have to be a little of both!
