I just bought the material for my first official order. The fabric was a little more expensive than I originally planned (sorry Jen) but I just couldn't put down the silk dupioni. It was just too beautiful.
The plan for this dress is to take cues from the mother's wedding dress. She originally wanted to use her dress as the actual material but just couldn't do it in the end. So, I am incorporating a gold ribbon like the one in Jen's wedding dress and adding an eggplant colored flower on the bodice as well as eggplant velvet ribbon on the sleeves. I am really excited to get this fabric cut and start working!
What do you think?
I'm still so dang excited about this dress! I showed Todd the pictures and he was also excited. We love the flower.
