Remember the flashy Alexander McQueen ball dress that the BA decided she liked? Well my friend Blondie and I came up with our own version!
This was the first draft. I was pretty happy with it considering the pattern we adapted looked like this:
but I didn't like the boxy front pleats so I fiddled. This is the finished result. Not perfect but hey!
I am looking forward to seeing the finished effect tomorrow with hair and make-up (and obligatory fake tan). This Grad Ball will be the final, official school function of her young life and I am so grateful that her grandparents, both parents and step parents will be there to share it with her.

As usual... the dress is gorgeous.
Your daughter has amazing taste... and is lucky to have such a talented mother and friend Blondie!!!

I feel like every time I check in you're outfitting your daughter for a new dress ha ha.
Thanks Colleen! BB: you're RIGHT!!! But that's the last one now!!
Very nice! And I do like what you did with the final version - I would never have been able to pick out to do that but it made an amazing difference!
