Description

I made this dress last week for a wedding I went to in Sonoma last weekend. I used Vogue pattern 8184, the strapless version. I added a ribbon strap with a ruffle to give it some spice. I used ribbon on the waist area, but next time I would use a stretch ribbon because the fabric was stretch sateen so that I would be comfortable, but the ribbon made it tight. I was still able to dance and have fun.

Material Notes

Boning, zipper, stretch sateen, ribbon, red satin

    That fabric print is just beautiful! It’s just right for that dress and I love the colour you used for the strap. The whole look is great, good job :)
