Latest work of an A-line gown with detachaeble train. Took me 5 months to complete. Well worth the work, I may make it even more eleborate with some beading on the ruffles.
I had created a corset along with a petticoat for this gown.
Showing a bit of the process
Corset is covered by two shimering fabrics, top one is sequenced.
Getting ready to cut the sequenced fabric.

Latest creation a Black Gown
The sketches done by me for this new dress.
The beginning of something amazing!
It all starts with the mannequin. Done my tracing of how I want this dress to look. On to my patternmaking.
Did all my patterns, will be ready to cut fabric soon!
Excited just by seeing the muslin, and how the fabric may act. I'm already seeing the flow of the dress.
Introducing the fabric.
Preparing for the fabric to be cut, by using muslin first. Less mistakes are made especially, if you plan on using expensive fabric.
All pieces are cut and being tested for placement.
Adding a beautiful black satin under the sequence.
Love being surrounded by my mannequins.
Built in corset for this dress, to give extra support.
The inner workings
Working on the hem.
Almost there
The finished product 2 looks in one dress. You can wear it with the detachable red satin sash. Or without. I didn't want to create just another black dress. But one with a choose of element to it.
