'Some Enchanted Evening'... part 1

I have been putting together an evening wear collection for over a year now and have lots of outfits for it... all of them requiring something small to be finished (hehe). However, this collection is becoming so large that I have decided to post outfits as I finish them instead of trying to fit the whole collection in one gigantic entry!

I'm very happy with how this sparkly blue dress turned out. Stella was very happy to model it for me...


 
 
The dress is made from a blue yarn interwoven with metallic silver to make it glittery. It has a blue/purple ruffle that matches the stole. The belt is metallic thread moss stitch with a diamante, heart shaped belt buckle. The flower in her hair is a knitted flower in metallic thread with a diamante button in the centre. The shoes are made from the same yarn as the dress. All pieces designed by me.

 
 
 
 
 

 
 


 
 
 
 
 
 
I also have another very large collection, the bohemian collection, that I will have to post as I finish each outfit. This collection is also too large for a single entry and I keep coming up with new ideas to add to it...
 
 
 
Until next time!

  1. One word. Beautiful. I commend you for accomplishing such a designer evening dress. Now she needs an Opera and a man to go with her to.

    1. I'm working on a new boy doll who might fit that bill... not sure what I can do about the Opera though...
