Wow - is this the dress you're going to wear to the wedding? (I read your LJ, I swear I'm not a greasy stalker) It's utterly beautiful. The neckline is gorgeous.

no, it's the first version of the dress i'll probably be making to wear to the wedding. the one for the wedding will be made of red-orange linen. i'll post it once it's finished.
