A couple of Summer weddings

This client had lovely, citrine silk fabric that had been sent to her by the bride and future sister-in-law so she could match the wedding party.  She chose a simple little party dress pattern and I got it built for her in the week she had before she flew off to her brother's wedding in Bali.   It was a lot of fun to build and luckily, wasn't too complicated given the amount of time I had to build it.

   This was a groom who wanted to be dressed up and look very sharp in the front but also wanted to show his individuality with bright, nonconforming colors in the back.  And, he wanted to be able to wear it inside out for the after party!  It was a lot of detail to pack into one item but he was thrilled with the end result.
