My civil ceremony dress is ready 🙂 and I’m very happy with the outcome.
I’m gonna be a 50s queen 🙂
I think I’ve told you before that I would have loved to be born in that era.
One thing is for sure: my dress is unique because is my idea combined from a few other images 🙂
We’ll see if there will be any copycats afterwards 🙂
Google images helped me a lot 🙂 but I’m sorry that I didn’t save the source of the images
that got me inspired.
As you can see I went for the green 🙂 combined with nude.
Enjoy the photos:
This is the dress, the bag and the shoes I’ll be wearing:
And the gloves 🙂 – they’re a must
Gloves and bag are vintage 🙂

The actual shade of green is in the picture below:
While it was still a work in progress:
This is the first picture I came across when I searched Google images for inspiration
and I just loved these lovely ladies.

What I kept from this one is the puffiness 🙂 of the skirt and the belt made out of material.
But I made my belt having a bow, cause I love them bows 🙂
From this one I kept the collar and something from the sleeves – check out this look here
This one helped me because of the buttons:
mine are smaller and displayed closer to the collar
As for the skirt I took something from a skirt I already have and you’ve already seen here 🙂
this is how I came up with the waist line of the skirt
If you want to see me wearing it, you have to keep following my blog 🙂
I can assure you that you won’t be disappointed 🙂
Long live the green!

Imi place foarte mult rochita! Imi plac culorile, dar mai ales realizarea! Eu as urmari cu mult interes si secrete de croitorie, daca tot te ocupi si de asta. 😉

stiu sa croiesc fuste simple 🙂 dar rochia asta esta e facuta de o croitoreasa cu experienta 🙂 – nu am avut curajul sa mi-o fac singura – i-am explicat ei ideea si ea a pus-o in practica
I love it! Abia astept sa te vad imbracata cu ea. 😀
🙂 multumesc!
