Upcycled,1970’s homemade prom dress, refashioned to a 1950’s style dress with sash and shawl for a summer wedding.
You can go to the wedding in a Carolina Hererra dress or you can go in a custom designed dress. My client picked “one of a kind” elegance. She looked and felt beautiful.

This is the second dress I have made out of a vintage kimono for this client. She liked the style and shape of the last slide you see of a floral dress. She wanted a dress with a full skirt. My challenge was to design a dress utilizing only the fabric of the kimono. I also integrated the lining of the kimono.
First a pattern is created by Draping the dress on a dressform. Luckily I have one close to my clients size. Then I made a mockup of the dress to test the fit.
After the first fitting adjustments were made to the pattern. Before cutting out the fabric, the kimono had to be completely taken apart. Then the pieces were cut. In some cases it was quilted together to form large enough pieces.
This dress fits over a petticoat. It is also fully lined with a pink hem extending 4 inches longer than the dress.
The project took 3 months from start to finish. Its a process.
In the end the client was very happy and thrilled with the results.

Here you’re seeing two different necklines. In the first fitting, the collar created an off the shoulder look. In this second fitting, at the clients request, the collar will sit on the edge of her shoulders. with a deeper V-neck shape. Custom means the client has the ultimate say in the style and look that they want. However, the client sees a design before it is executed. If a client then decides to make changes, it can increases the construction time and therefore cost more.
