Photo's of my dress on the day of the presentation! I'm really pleased with how it looks on Faye, it fits really well around the back and is a nice length on her. I've found several elements really tricky mainly to do with the bodice but not of them have been really detrimental to the overall effect. I wish I'd been able to keep the bodice fabric looking neater but that's been due a mistake with the initial pattern drafting which resulted in me having to let the fabric out at the sides; a problem several others have had as well. The decoration looks much lighter than Dexter's sample but I feel it's a closer colour to the design and am quite happy with the result. Here the petal's are just pinned on when I take it back to the studio I will play around with the petals a little more before sewing them on but it's nice to be able to see how they look and move on a body.
