The arrival!

I said I would show you the last pictures of Prom night! Just as the Mini got to the school it broke down. Everyone jumped out and the Head of Year was saying "No girls, get back in". When the girls explained they had to push the teacher said "OK everyone, stand back, good photo opportunity"!
Apparently it was the entry of the evening! Katy had a lovely time with her friends.

The Prom dress groweth!

So the Prom dress continues. These shots show the bodice and then the skirt linings being joined to their silk outers. Then a large amount of hand sewing was required to join the two together at over 200 separate points to create the ruching. I think this makes it looser and larger rather than gathering which creates a smaller, tighter effect. Then the bodice was joined to the skirt and Katy had to try it on for fit....her boobs were toooooo small so a quick bit of adjustment was needed!! Now all to do is sew the zip in and hem.....in 6 days!
