I might experiment more with the other fabrics I have lying around, but I might just leave it be.<br /><br />I've looked at the fashions for passion dresses and they are very beautiful! They've got very nice intricate bead and stone work.<br /><br />I will have to start following your blog! The pink standard gown you made is really quite lovely.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09362242287228936851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2220376660446558282.post-18614548605059582122012-06-30T19:02:53.443-07:002012-06-30T19:02:53.443-07:00So lovely!

We saw some fabulous and very over-the-top gowns in Portland OR at the Columbia Star Ball. The web site is: http://www.fashionsforpassion.com No problem shopping there as they seem to start at $3000 and go up! I have no affiliation at all, but find it is a fun site for inspiration.<br /><br />Love your idea of gauntlets and bracelets. You could probably even wear them together. I liked the idea of the caplet sleeve. You might want to try it with a scrap and see how it looks?<br /><br />I am doing a Latin gown for a friend now. You can check my blog if interested. http://bgballroom.wordpress.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
