Description

Basically i decided to recycle the black and white version of the contour that i made earlier in my projects. The dress was too tight and as a result i took off the top part and decided to make an elastic waist skirt with it. And retractable straps and wore it with this Black top and belt( owned already).

The combo was a hit. Loved it. Wore it to church.
