So, here's the dress on my beautiful younger daughter. After a few unexpected difficulties, we barely got it done on time and had no time for alterations.
She still loved it and her friends liked it, too. The dress is a purple-black taffeta with a blue, bejeweled sheer over the taffeta on the corset. The skirt and corset are two pieces, but we did tack them together for her comfort.
Lots of work. Less than $100 total. And the last prom dress I'll have to make. :-)

wow DeBee I've never even attempted something like a gown. She is beautiful and so is her dress. I would be afraid of ruining it. You did a great job on both the gown and a beautiful daughter.
Thanks, morningdove. She is a gem. The dress... it is okay. I know all the flaws no one else can see! It can be nerve-wracking to be responsible for such an important dress, but in the end it is all okay.
No more prom dresses, though1 Yay!
