Sheer Dreaminess

This is a white sheer silk chiffon dress that laces up the back for ease of fit and has a deep slit up the front. I tweaked a 1930's slip pattern to get this look. I added extra volume to the skirt. Spaghetti straps and a deep v bodice in the front are very flattering for any size. This would be lovely over another long dress for evening.....or if you are daring, wear it as is and see what happens!

Ghawazee Coats.....

I make em! I love em! What dancer of the Middle Eastern realm doesnt need a fabulous cover up on her way to the gig and back. Not only can you use it as a cover up. You can perform in it as well! This style is of the more classic look. Straight lines, hanging sleeve, Slit up the side, buttons down the front, keyhole neckline tied with a string. Elegant and alluring at the same time.

One of my most favorite things.......

This little number is a dress inspired by a dream I had of a medieval princess rising up through the mist. Yards and yards of unwashed muslin gauze were used to create this fantasy garment. Several gores were used to create the circular hem. The hem and sleeves were hand stamped in blue with an acrylic fabric paint. I can recreate this to your specifications. It would be perfect for a wedding in a shorter length in a silk velvet or silk gauze. It is still one of my favorite pieces in the simple cotton gauze.
