Blue Ball Gown

I was contacted recently about designing a new ball gown for a sweet princess who loves to play dress up, and I jumped on the opportunity to create something custom for her. Queen Mother knew exactly what she wanted, and after looking at several of my listings, gave me an idea of all the details she wanted in the new dress. I love that she took elements of three different dresses I have listed in the shop to come up with a design fit for a princess!

I am going to the store to look for princess fabric that has a little bling to it, that was the only stipulation to the fabric choices. Although I don't use a lot of trim or flashy prints, I'm sure I can find something that excites her and still stays true to my design aesthetic. I'm going to stick with soft blues and whites, maybe throwing in a bit of silver to keep things alive and dramatic. I think the dress is going to turn out beautifully, I can't wait to get started on it and see the finished product!
