Ball 2009

With a sigh of relief and little moment for a high-five, another ball season has passed.

This year I made the gowns for 3 girls all of which i coach at hockey.

Right: Shelley McIllvride, Sophie Olliver and Miranda Harle pose elegantly.

Sophie's gown was a tie-dye Chiffon with an edge of watermelon-red. Very full skirt with braids and plaits wrapping around the waist.























Shelleys gown was a Deluxe Silky Satin with Silver embroided braid with crystals scattered along it. It took a fair bit of playing with the strapping to get it to sit correctly but in the end it stayed on :)
Mirandas gown was a thin Deluxe silky satin with a lace braid wrappping around the bust and waist. I loved the fabric and how it draped. I am stoked with how it turned out.

It was fun to make these gowns this year, I learnt alot from it again.

LOVE xx
