Now, I need to start this post off with a little disclaimer.
I don't make wedding dresses.
I do, however, make dresses for college roommates who love me enough to submit to multiple fittings via skype and four different mock-up dresses made from old sheets as we tweak and adjust to make a dress over a 500 mile distance. Especially when said roommate forgives me for changing the skirt last minute when the fabric I chose didn't lay like I expected.
Stats:
Simplicity 1882 as a starting point, but completely modified
9 yds fabric/lining
13.5 hrs for mockups
14.5 hrs for final dress
