So... due to some unforeseen changes, it seems the updating on this challenge may slow considerably. That being said, posts will still come pretty frequently, as intend to eventually have a page for every costume I've made. :)
Snow White Dress (Snow White and the Huntsman)
Modeled by Livia, made and photographed by Sarah
Trivia:
Dress made circa 2014, after seeing Snow White and the Huntsman in theaters. I like the upholstery taffeta of the overdress, but to my everlasting regret, I selected the most hideous pink cotton for the underdress. *shakes head*
The bodice of the overdress is lined and boned, and features eyelets in the front for a functional lace-up closure and poofy, multi-piece sleeves. Other interesting features include the infinite button array on the lower sleeves of the underdress and a gathered ruffle trim around the square neckline.
The dress was never worn for any events, sadly. As the trend suggests, I was a serial wardrobe squanderer for many years. I have now seen the error of my ways: if I'm not gonna wear it, I'm not gonna keep it.
In these pictures (at least to my eyes) the underdress appears to be a similar shade of red to the overdress. Perhaps its the saturation on my computer monitor, and if I saw it in person, I would agree with you on the color. In any case, this is one of the more intricate (detail-wise) gowns you've showed so far, and one I would probably wear myself, if I had the right boots for it (which I think, now that my mind turns that way, I do).
