Sketchy Stories: Take it or Sleeve it

After our little collaboration for Kevin’s wedding, Grace told me that she was going to be a wedding sponsor once again. The wedding was on January 10, and it was December 23 when she told me.

A 2-week timeline? Doable!

She told me that she liked what we did for Cza’s bridesmaid’s dress, particularly the exaggerated cape sleeves. She wanted sleeves like that, but on a more ornate dress.

There’s a cut of beige lace leftover from Kevin’s wedding - it was supposed to be for Ate Bullet, but they suddenly changed their dress color to dusty blue. With that lace in mind, this was the sketch.

And with Ofel’s help, the sketch became this beautifully elegant gown.

As a bonus, we made the sleeve detachable and replaced it with ostrich feathers for the reception.

That takes the gown and gives is a double dose of chic!
