New Dress: Satin Flower Goddess!

Right onto a new design and here is my next project. Not sure if this is a little risky but I shall try and see what it comes out like! I might end up hating it or loving it - only time will tell!

So I have noticed a lot of textured skirts and dresses recently - mostly of the feather variety but anyhoo - so I thought I would try this trend out for myself and make a truly unique dress. Below is a photo of the fabric I intend to use.



The duchess satin in a cream color is what I am planning for the bodice and the textured flowers in satin for the skirt. I know its a little out there, but you don't know until you try! Here is an extremely quick sketch of the dress I intend to make. The bodice will be strapless or maybe have little straps with a sweetheart neckline. The skirt will be a-line. I haven't used boning before but I really want to add structure to the dress so will be using some in this design.


So what do you think? I would love your thoughts and comments :-)
