Julie

Julie’s dress was a complex alteration challenge. We started with two identical dresses which were both several sizes too small. I used the skirt from one with part of its bodice, added panels to each side, altered the neckline and created sleeves. I used the fabric and lace from the second dress to complete the dress. The remaining lace was used to create three coordinating bridesmaids dresses and their accessories.

This dress took approximately 30 hours to make, not including the bridesmaids dresses.
