Prom Dress

My baby sister's Senior Prom dress. My deadline was Friday, April 8, I finished at 3 p.m. I am excited about the finished product. I put a lot more detail into this dress than have put into previous dresses. All but three seams are enclosed for a polished, finished look. This is the third gown I've made for my sister and I have to say that it is my favorite. I was hoping to have several weeks to work on in it, but we had a hard time finding a design my sister wanted. After listening to all the details she wanted, I found this dress. It was exactly what she wanted. She loved the Jane Austen-like style and pink is a fabulous color on her. By the time we figured out the design, bought fabric, etc. I had less than two weeks to start and complete the dress.

The Dress

She requested that it dip a little bit in back, so here is the back of the dress.

One more shot. You can see the top a little better and the flower I made using this tutorial. It turned out a little floppy =(. It was the last thing I made and I was running out of steam by this point.
