Lisa was a bridesmaid for her friend who lives overseas. She was sent the beautiful duck-egg/gold shot taffeta fabric and given free reign over her own dress design. The other bridesmaid’s dress was made up overseas by a local dressmaker.
Tea-length dress with v-neck and ruched cross-over bodice. The empire-line waist is trimmed with an inch wide band of matching fabric and from one side waterfalls of taffeta give interest to the simple a-line skirt.
Lisa commissioned me to change the ivory ribbon bow that came on the cape she bought for her daughter to match the taffeta of her own dress. The result is very charming.
