So this was the challenge. My client liked this dress for Gene and I suggested for it a beautiful lightweight ramie floral that I recently bought. But how to make a flounce that spiraled around the dress and still create an opening in the back was what I struggled to figure out. I wish I there were a picture of the back of this dress because I honestly don't know how they got the model into it either. But yesterday I was feeling bionic and decided to tackle it. It was definitely a construction challenge in that I had to change up my usual methods but I think I got close, and the end result is super cute and fits great even though it's a snug fit getting it over her hips.
Definitely a challenge. But the final effect is spectacular!
