The dress is one of the many reasons that I now try to take before and after pictures. I really wish you could see what this dress looked like before I worked on it.
This wedding gown was originally completely straight. There were no tucks, straps, or additional layers to the dress. The beautiful bride really wanted a dress with tucks, and wanted straps. I created tucks with the bottom layer of fabric and the tulle on top. I also added another layer underneath the dress in order to make it long enough in the front. I also added straps to the dress and added a halter strap as well so that she could use either one on her big day. Adding all of the tucks in the back also worked as a bustle. In the top picture you can also see a piece of removable lace that was added because the bodice was low cut.
There are a lot of things you can do to make a gown your dream gown!
*I just received this picture from the bride. Her mom took it at the bridal store when they bought it. It was fun to see after so much time because I had forgotten exactly what it looked like. There was also a belt sewn onto the dress (that is hidden by her arms) that I took off. So now you can see the before and the after!
