Description

I am loving the prints ‘Skull, Roses and Tattoo’: This dress is made from three ‘Alexandra Henry’ fabric prints,cut length ways and sewn together to create a personalised length of fabric for myself, as I liked the idea of all three prints, although I did not want a dress of the same one print. I then went over some of the skulls with fabric paint to give more of a highlight to the tone of the fabric. The lower part of the dress was attached to a black stretch lace top with a frill. I used left over fabric for hair ribbon and decoration. No pattern was used.

    I think your skirt is amazing! I’ve never commented on anyone’s project before, but this compelled me. I love it!
