if I won the lotto....

I am in serious love with this costume.

It's the Dahlal 'Solessence'  - in case the link didn't work.

Don't know that I could pull it off but...

I'm putting it into my costume designing brain.  Expect to see something similar at some point.

The colors would be right for you. If I recall, you look like the model. ;)

That's gorgeous, and judging by your icon you really suit reddish colours!

I'm actually looking to do a similar shaped skirt in white to that one (simple and little ruched) and wasn't sure how to bead it, so it's being stored in my costume memory too...

It's so nice to store these little ideas for later.

I love reds. Thanks for noticing. :)

Yeah it's great. I keep a little sketchbook by my work desk for ideas. That's what's so great about being able to sew, there are costumes where I love the skirt but hate the bra, and vice versa. And then you can adapt them to suit your shape, and so on.

I love this skirt...but the bra??? No thanks!

I like the first one shown (the blue), but the others... eh, I don't think I'd wear one of those. I definitely want to see what you end up making. :)

I don't like that blue at all
don't like the criss-cross at the neck
or the big sheer patches along the sides

different tastes - :)
