Hi,
would love to find a dress similar to the ones shown below. Has anyone seen anything similar?

Would even contemplate making from scratch.



bit shorter than this...

Oooh pretty! Sorry Op, haven't see anything like it. You could definitely get it copied by a dressmaker? Might be expensive as it would take alot of work.

Try these. I've only heard good things about them.

Twee.

You could have a bash yourself, look out for patterns.

But here's one form Etsy.com http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=43094873&ref=sr_gallery_33&&ga_search_query=tutu+prom&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_page=&includes[]=tags&includes[]=title A bit expensive but really beautiful.

Thanks guys,
checked out lightinthebox site. It's there but it's $249 dollars and that's before shipping <sigh>

Will have a hunt for patterns, I think I saw someone recommend a site recently.

Found a pattern!



Once you get past the god awful colours and the fact that they've done something funny to make the bodice look like a sweet wrapper. The basic shape of the dress is pretty much what I'm looking for.


Time to dust off the old home economics book and figure out how the hell to do boning!
