We women love skirts of all kinds—they’re timeless, versatile, and effortlessly feminine. Skirts add variety and personality to any wardrobe, easily shifting from casual to dressy depending on the fabric and how you style them. Lately, I’ve had the joy of creating several skirts for my clients, and each one reflects the unique beauty and confidence of the woman wearing it.

 My daughter announced her engagement and we were off with the planning and preparation for this happy occasion. My daughter wanted the whole experience of shopping for a wedding gown which, thankfully, meant I wouldn’t be making her dress. My dressmaking work involved two dresses – mine, the mother of the bride and a daughter-in-law’s, who was to be one of the bridesmaids. Since my daughter-in-law is very voluptuous, she was struggling with finding a dress that would not only fit but be comfortable and flattering as well. Often, ready made dresses use extra layers and boning to squeeze the body into the shape. My daughter-in-law was very excited about getting a custom made dress.  Her dress was made from a beautiful sanded satin. The bodice front was surplice with diagonal darts originating from the waist. The sleeves are gathered and puffed at the shoulder with vertical darts from the hem. The beautiful skirt is a full circle. Nothing more feminine than a full circle skirt, so fun to wear, feels luscious and makes you want to twirl. This beautiful dress was extremely flattering on my daughter-in-law. She not only looked beautiful, but she also felt beautiful.  The mother of the bride dress is a navy stretch crepe with a beautiful lace overlay. It is two dresses in one.
The lace dress was a little longer at the hem and sleeve and sat a little higher at the neckline showing off the lace against the skin. The design was kept simple as the lace was more elaborate  The stretch crepe felt very luxurious against the skin and made the whole dress very comfortable.  A beautiful wedding and happy bride & groom.
