It goes to just around knee-length. This is currently a 28" skirt (from the waist, which includes seam allowances -- so 27"?) but the finished product will have a few tucks along the bottom hem so will be a bit shorter.
It will be white -- I have a really beautiful, gauze-y 50/50 silk/cotton blend for the outer part (it will have four or five layers of skirt for poof) and silk lining. I'm a bit nervous to cut out the REAL fabric!
Oh, and I just read your parenting post, and the post that inspired it. I have much to say on the subject, of course, but I have a feeling not all of it would be well-received :-(
hey, look at all the jewelry you're wearing! :)
ReplyDeleteLooks good - how long is it? What color is it going to be?

So beautiful! The shape is really flattering, and I love that bold red color. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is fucking awesome! I will get this pic printed out and see if my tailor can't replicate it :-) Fabulous work, T.
