Amora Couture



My photographer had fallen in love with feather dresses. Only, she didn't want to spend an arm and a leg on a "prop" she could only use on one size child. I decided to look into some of the other popular feather dresses out there and I was very disappointed. Most of what I saw, had feathers GLUED onto the dress. Consider me less impressed. I decided to plan my own dresses that would be useful as props or on a child for more than one year. A dress this beautiful could become an heirloom!! I sketched out the design, and will be the first to admit that working with the feathers was less than fun, but as I worked, I learned lessons (as designers it is always trial and error) and was very impressed with the finished product and how versatile it became. Now what child would not feel like someone special in this dress?
