The under dress fabric shows up a lot more pinker than it really is. It has a more orange tone to it, like the lining fabric I chose. (tried to take a shot without the flash but they didn't turn out.) In person the fabrics are much more beautiful. The chiffon is a little more sheer than what is seen in the photo. I think it'll do perfectly. :)
The Brooch
No dinner dress is complete without the brooch. The brooch seen on the dress in the movie is made up of a triple figure eight with diamonds. The one found on the "Heaven" dress looks like a solid piece. We don't know much about the two pieces but here are the two different styles...
While searching the internet for a suitable brooch I ran across this site.. and it had the prefect brooch for this dress. It is not exactly like the two above, but it's pretty close. 70.15mm long, made from silver plated metal and studded with clear crystal. It was a reasonable price too! This lovely swarovski crystal brooch will almost be the highlight of the dress, next to all the beading of course!
The brooch, its even more gorgeous in person. |
I'm so excited to order the fabrics and get started on this dress!
