Our church sponsors a special spring prom and Miss Abigail was excited to be able to go this year for the first time. As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, the hand-me-down dress was very plain and needed some alteration in the bodice. I did the structural alterations, but Abby wanted to do the embellishing. She was going for a kind of "Regency" look. Her favorite literature character is Miss Emma Woodhouse. I think she created that look exactly with the empire sash, flat dancing slippers and the matching silver headband. Her beautiful smile adds just the right touch, don't you think? She is such a sweetheart with her handsome escort.
Love the gray and silver with the midnight blue. It turned out great, and she looks perfectly current with a wonderful not to Jane Austen.
