Lace Impressions

14/11/2025

I haven’t had a chance to post this from September. My “daughter in love” in her custom fitted gown and handmade veil. The dress was an 18 made to a 12/14. Aside from fitting the dress, including remaking the sleeves to sit off the shoulder properly, and hemming it’s 6 layers, with a 5 point bustke at the waist, I changed the front with additional lace as it had an unusual V showing more than desired in a strange pattern, and also evened out and tacked down the lace flowers all around the top.

Fitted the shoulders (sleeves had to be reset),
shaped the bust, added a modesty panel and the perfect hem for her daughter’s wedding. I love the color!
