This one is the same dress I made a couple of weeks ago, using different fabric of coarse! It fits dd well and is actually slightly big, but not too big. The last dress was the same size, but I had issues withthe skirt and the shoulder straps so I ended up taking out about 2 inches in the girth(after fixing stuff over and over!) My in-laws are in Korea and the pink fabric is fabric my MIL found for me. It's a bit sheer, so the bodice has candy pink lycra under it as well as swimsuit lining. The skirt is one layer. I'm not 100% happy with the neckline. I have issues using my serger on curves. I need to be taught how to navigate my serger on a curve! Those who use sergers, do you remove your cutter when you are sewing on a curve? I ran into my problem whils sewing on the curve. I should have used my standard machine for the sweetheart part of the bodice.
Originally, I was going to make this dress with pink mesh on top and with long sleeves. Hancock was closed and Joann's pink mesh was more purple, so I bagged that idea. I have never used nude mesh for the "strapless" look. I always use nude colored swim suit liner. I used mesh this time and I'm not sure if I like it. It is very stretchy and I don't like how the elastic turned out. It doesn't look too bad on her but off her, it isn't as nice looking as I would like it to be. Over all, I think the dress turned out cute.
I still have a ton of the pink fabric left. I might try making the dress with pink mesh and long sleeves. I think I will opt to NOT make the sweetheart neckline and will make the rounded, "arch" neckline instead.
Ignore dd's hair. She and dh had just returned from a 2 hour drive when she tried this dress on last night. LOL
