Mint green bias cut satin bridesmaids dresses for Katherine

Tags: , , , , ,

bride and bridesmaids art deco wedding

1930’s style bias cut bridesmaids dresses in soft peppermint satin. Criss-cross seaming, cowl necklines and necklace back detail.  The bridesmaid dresses I made perfectly complimented the dress I’d made for the bride and suited the age and figure of both grown-up and teen.

I also made Katherine’s wedding dress click here to see her dress entry.

The dresses came with an unusual side ‘hook-up’, requested by the bride. This meant the length could be pulled up and out of the way for dancing later in the day.

“My detachable skirt was the best. So many people were very impressed with your work. Thank you so very much, I LOVE MY SKIRT!”⁠
⁠
For real bride Christina, I created one of my iconic dip dye overskirts. Christina went for a beautiful monochromatic ombre, going from bright sky blue, all the way down to a deep, rich navy.⁠
⁠
Whether it`s matching your bouquet, your groom`s pocket square or your bridesmaids, having an overskirt really helps tie the colour palette of wedding together.⁠
⁠
If you want to add some colour to your wedding, but don`t quite feel brave enough to dye directly onto your wedding dress, then a dip dye overskirt is the perfect solution. Have a look at my Etsy (link in the bio) to find out more.⁠
⁠
What colours would you pick?

Sometimes dressmaking lingo can feel a bit overwhelming, so I like to spend time breaking down various elements of a wedding dress I`ve made in... Anatomy of a Dress!⁠
⁠
▫️for the fabric I used a beautiful, ivory floral lace (layered on top of silk dupion)⁠
⁠
▫️the back of dress has a keyhole opening, secured with covered buttons at the top⁠
⁠
▫️the corset bodice is fully boned with visible boning channels⁠
⁠
▫️the dress fastens with a lace-up back, with ribbon and eyelets, and a modesty panel behind (so no skin shows through beneath the lacing)⁠
⁠
▫️the skirt is cut straight with a very slight flare near the hem and scalloped edging used all around, including onto the small train⁠
⁠
Did you find this little breakdown helpful? Hopefully it means that when it comes to your bridal outfit, you have a better idea of how to talk about what you want 🥰⁠

If you want to see what this dress looked like on the day of the wedding, have a look at this week`s earlier post.
