This dress was designed around the model shown in the photo. Ally is one of my favorite models and I
wanted to create a stunning piece she could wear in a fashion show I was
presenting in. I wanted this dress to be
an eye catcher and something very artistic as this look was going to finish the
runway. I gave the dress a unique look
by alternating the pieces of organza with a beautiful lace that had a great
trim to it. I wanted to create the
hi/low look to really make it stand out and each piece was hand placed to make
sure it flowed just how I wanted it to.
I was so inspired the more I worked on this dress I just grew more and
more excited. What you don’t know is
that time was quickly running out and I had to come up with the accessories to
go with it. I am always down to the last
minute trying to perfect my designs that I quickly ran out of time with no
accessories. With two of my four
children nearby, we riffled through my supplies finding pieces to match. I found a fringe I LOVED, and some rosettes
that were placed on the netting (also used to embellish the dress). I was beyond thrilled when in that moment,
the idea for the wrist cuffs came about and I was able to truly ‘complete the
look’.
