Rose Petal Couture


So I probably say this way to often, but this was one of my FAVORITE dresses to create. I was in a local fabric store purchasing items for a custom design and saw this beautiful vintage appearance fabric. Something you would think for old fashion drapes. I then looked to the side and saw where the rolls of tulle were kept. I immediately spotted the green was the same green in the fabric. The picture of this vintage looking dress came screaming in my head. Talk about a kid in a candy store! Now, I was definitely rolling in tulle as I had to ruffle each layer, but as each layer was put on this dress I grew more and more excited. When finishing the dress, I knew this dress was a show stopper so I wanted to add something over the top special. I found some sparkled organza pieces I had left over from a pageant dress and began cutting away and burning the organza to create the stunning flower you see in the middle. Then I recreated that look as I pieced together the corsage and the over the top headband to create this look perfect to be photographed!
