Brooke's Dress


When my friend Brooke told me she wanted a halter dress for her bridesmaid's dress, I knew I wanted to do something "sassy." Brooke is my friend from high school in Decatur, Alabama, but after she attended college at the Savannah College of Art and Design, she moved to New York City. She currently resides in a trendy area of Brooklyn and works in SoHo at Stephen Lewis Photography.

Brooke has always had incredible style. One thing in particular about her, is that she loves big rings and is rarely seen without her signature accessories.
To liven up a simple halter, I added tuxedo pleating in the bust and skirt areas. I still have to send her dress up to her in New York, so we can fit it one last time, but before I complete the hem, I will turn what is now an A-line skirt into a flattering tulip skirt. I can't wait...it's going to be gorgeous!
