This is one of my first dresses I made from fully pattern drafting and woo was it a killer mainly since I haven't worked with satin since high school. It was also my first time working with horsehair braid which I was so EXCITED about. its a simple dress with a lapel in the back and a long skirt. Looking at the front wheel in the front picture it looks... Creepy, like she has a pogo stick peg leg almost... But back to the dress, the bodice is fitted with a side zipper and is fully lined, the back other than the lapel is an open back as you can see and the skirt is broken up into 6 panels. I added a slit in the center front since I wanted to also do something to the front since it was to conservative for my taste. I wanted to add feathers too and or fringe but... I've been told less is more and so have been trying to dial back my designs at this point.
