Formal dress


Hello there! approximately a month ago I was wondering where I should get my formal dress from [The dress I liked was the 2010 asymmetrical silk dress by Lanvin, ohh so pretty [also impossible]], after heavy discussion my sister managed to convince my mum that I should make a dress. 
Oh the power of my Sister. . . .  the date 2/08/11 I have been making a floor length, peachy-pinky-nude coloured chiffon dress.

I actually wanted to make something like this 
eh.. it's kind of sort of similar


Today I finished ^_^
Well, actually before that I made a mannequin, I've said this before- it's quite ugly [but hey, it does the job]. Basically you just put on a piece of clothing and sew it on as form fitting as possible, then stuff it with newspaper [and then you put a bra on it (optional)].




 Hey mann! ...


I got the material with my Sister when she came here on holiday ^_^

 You can make a pattern by putting a dress on your mannequin and follow the shape. 


Pretty neat sewing right? [it's the only part]




 progress...
The under layer complete =]


Are you ready for a series of blurry pictures?







 Final Tadaa!!
The inside is incredibly...



Kind of sick of sewing now, I feel like the kid who ate too much cake.
I need to sleep and do art and graphics.

Thanks to my Sister, Mum&Aunt,Dad and my wonderful friends who always support me ^__^

So sleepy [especially in dimly lit areas]

Good night!!
