The first of the party dresses is done - I'm making two identical ones. There's much less beading than on the fairy bodices, although I did bead the hemline. The slip has a lace edge, which shows below the hem, but if someone prefers a slimmer silhouette and without lace the lace showing, then they don't need to put the slip on their doll. I just need to finish the beading on the second dress and it will be done as well.
