Here is a dress pattern by Dollhouse Designs that truly does it all. Taking your girl from a day at the park or shopping to a grand ballroom. The bodice is the same elegant design and can be dressed up or down with trims and fabric choice.
View A has a sweeping evening length skirt while View B has a gathered skirt attached. Those magnificent tiers are optional. It looks beautiful without tiers in either version, but truly blooms like a rose when topped with such floaty elegance.
Learn the secret method for making this dramatic skirt that is both sleek and full at the same time. This one truly is a Beauty.
Fully illustrated every step of the way, the instructions guide you from the simplest version to the cosplay-like details to make your masterpiece.
