About my Frock Up in Colour Dress
- Pattern Used: My own design
- Fabrics Used: Silk Georgette and Silk Satin in Midnight
- Time To Create: One Week
- Dress Influenced By: Simple elegance. Using drapery and hand-stitching, i worked with the movement of the soft silk fabric to determine how the dress was formed. I wanted to achieve a flattering shape, feminine feel and timeless quality.
- Additional Information: "The best colour in the whole world is the one that looks good on you." - Coco Chanel

Absolutely my favourite dress of the season - this one is genius!! You have this one nailed from the length, the colour, the material to the puckered midrift and the neckline (again - adore the neckline!). 10/10 from Admirers in NYC
