This was from a school fashion show I did a while ago. It was my very first time sewing, and I was not very familiar with fabrics…so unfortunately the fabric is polyester lining, but I thought the color was great!! I made a “croissant” rose for her bustier as well!

The color is a little odd, but I i think that you made the polyester lining look great. It is funny because I made my first dress out of polyester lining too before I even went to fashion school. I did not know what kind of material to use, but I wanted to make a dress and just chose something. It looked kinda cool but the feel was horrible..and you have to stay away from open flames :)
