Ultimate Wedding Dress
From the pattern description: This one-of-a-kind bridal gown fits like a glove. The knit fabric clings smoothly to the body, while the silk top has graceful wide sleeves that end with a ruffle. Austrian crystal trim sparkles as brightly as any bride. It’s sophisticated yet a bit bohemian. When I was designing it, I pictured it on a barefoot bride standing on fresh green grass in a beautiful garden setting. The dress definitely requires an investment of time to make, but isn’t your wedding day worth it? I also suggest you try it in other colors for important social events. With its beautiful neckline, it makes an incredible party dress.
