A dress for Janice...

Well, not really.  It's a dress I made recently to WEAR to my cousin (correction: niece), Janice's Wedding at the end of June.  CONGRATS AGAIN, Janice!

Inspiration? Aリトルブラックドレス (Little Black Dress) and グラフィク な ネックレス (Graphic Necklace) worn by Tory Burch (pretty good designs, I must say: toryburch.com) in the Japanese issue of ELLE (May '09).  The picture? I can't find at the moment...but, here was my "copy." =  )

1st sample: classic bubble s/l dress

    


















There were some slight alterations in the body fit, length and what not...
which led to...

2nd Sample:  

BETTER, after some minor alterations...here was MY interpretation.

FINAL: 
   
LOUD, you say?  JUST the way I LIKE IT! =  )  

Are hats allowed at weddings? maybe, an exception will have to be made.

Like it? Dislike it? Comments, please.
