The dress sketch is finalized and fabrics have been chosen.
This beautiful Charmeuse fabric in Ecru will be used as the lining of the dress. It is a simple slip style that will be lined from top to bottom. So the skirt will be fully lined.I love the silk crep de chine fabric also in Ecru that will be used as the flowy outer layer of the dress.
A plain silk organza also in Ecru will be used for the interfacing of the bodice. It is still very light but has a stability that will help the bodice hold it's tailored crispness.

All the fabric will be ordered from Ny Fashion Center. I was a little worried about getting this fabric ordered but they have an amazing shipping program. Spend over $300 and shipping is free. They also say most fabrics ship and are in the your hands one business day after ordering. Amazing. I am no longer worried about rushing a fabric order.
My final shot is the pattern I made from the organza bodice I put together. I took the bodice apart and cleaned up the lines to make sure it was symmetrical and even. I will make the bodice again from the pattern and see how that turns out next.
