What you can't see in this picture is how awesome my nails turned out! They were black with a gold snakeskin pattern and they really looked great. The only jewelry I wore was a snake ring (I think) and these bronze snake earrings. This picture is good for the shoulder and sleeve details.
<< Here you can sort of see the back. It was a nice deep V. I really like this picture I just wish I wasn't holding a glass of water.
This is cropped from a bigger picture so I'm sorry>> for the resolution. I also have no idea what I'm doing. Perhaps trying to sit on the table?
Final Thoughts:
Overall I was really pleased with how the dress turned out. It was also a big hit at the convention. I would love to wear it again but I think I'll make a few changes first.
1. I want to take some of the fullness out of the skirt. I think it would make it fall better and make it a little slinkier.
2. I'm thinking of adding gold drape chains across the back of the dress. This would look really nice I think and it would also help the dress stay in place. Perhaps I'll do this for Eclipse.
I loved this dress. I think the gold chains would be pretty - add a little sparkle - and I see what you mean about taking some of the fullness out, but I really loved this in Seattle.
ReplyDeleteI loved it as well. It turned out far better than I could have hoped and it was a rather smooth process.
DeleteThe other idea that Vic had was to do a chain across the shoulders then have just one hang down the length of the back with an ankh or somesuch at the end.
