Miho's Dress

3/14/2017

I finished the bows for the back of Miho's dress today. I would have been done sooner if not for the snow storm we never got. For days they were saying that we would be getting 15 to 20 centimetres of snow, so I thought I'd make a shawl and scarf for my Wizard so he could go out on some winter adventures with my Fantasy crew. But we didn't get more than a light dusting.

So back to finishing Miho's dress. I also made a matching clip for her hair.

Both bows were beaded and have the same flower arrangement.
They attach with snaps to the back of her dress.

I debated whether or not I should take photos of Miho in her finished dress, or wait until after she's painted. But painting could still take weeks, and I'm sure everyone would like to see the finished gown. So I took some photos....

Now I still have to make a slip, so she can wear just the shorter part of the dress by itself.

I love the way the dress you made is so versatile and can be used in several ways. You said earlier you didn't have a front view of the dress, it just so happens that while I was searching for a dress of my own to work on for a similar project I happened upon a picture of the front view of the dress on a Japanese wedding dress website. It turns out she has a second version of this dress done in plum and orchid purple tones instead of the blue and aqua green that your version uses. The designer is Stella De Libero she is from Japan the website where I found the dress is www.matsuo-wedding.com

Thanks for the website link. I didn't know who designed the gown I was trying to copy, and her designs are amazing.
