Elizabeth Taylor- Cat On A Hot Tin Roof-Chiffon Dress



 This is a dress I just finished. I have a back log of dresses made in the past month or so that i haven't blogged about yet, i will be adding those soon.  I have been busy between my teething baby and orders.

My client chose a plum chiffon with a plum satin lining. The waist has some elastic at the seam to allow for a baby bump as well as some extra holes in the belt to make fitting easier to adjust. The chiffon drapes along the V-neckline in one piece in the back, the front is draped in 4 pieces, though the original dress has the diagonal side drapes coming from the back piece (not as separately cut details) but its easier to alter later with normal side seams. The skirt is two full circles for the chiffon and one circle for the satin lining so there are side front and back seams in the chiffon. My Etsy shop Morningstar84

Elizabeth Taylor-White Halter Dress

Happy New year everyone! I hope you all had a great holiday season.  I am slowly getting back to work and adjusting to working in a very stop and go manor with a baby in the house. I have finished a few items that i have made before so i wont bother posting those but i did make something new! Styled after a photo of Elizabeth Taylor in a white halter dress, see below




 I happened across a great deal on ivory taffeta and i found this lace on Etsy that i just had to order, so I made a sample dress, it is still available for sale at half price right now because i got such a great deal on the fabric! I used a vintage belt kit, i just love them i wish they weren't so hard to find.
