My other strapless dress of the weekend.
This followed a basic simple pattern with an A-line skirt and a fitted, princess-cut bodice.
A word to the wise: don’t sew silk unless you are fully aware of how much of a challenge it is.
Red acetate lining, red silk, sequined black mesh.

AMEN, silk is NOT forgiving. Best to make sure you really pay attention when you are cutting it out…and really keep your seams straight. I’ve found these two things to be most important. Beautiful JOB! looks amazing. rozzilyn
