Purple Romance (Couture)[May 2010]
Organza, Cotton, Ribbon

I used one of my old Barbie dolls in order to sew this couture mini-dress. My inspiration for this dress was basically the shape of a rose.I layered blue organza over the bright pink cloth, and I also used pink ribbon to enhance the waist. The colours and the sleeve give the
dress a more romantic look.

I was also partially influenced Karl Lagerfeld's theory of "butterfly sleeves". His description of the "butterfly sleeves" are as quoted from him:

You saw the way they are not completely attached, so you can move and there is a volume that's why I call them butterfly or flying sleeves.
In the same way, my toga dress made use of the same concept of the butterfly sleeves.

This dress is my favourite piece of work so far, as I find that it is one of the most well-made and really speaks to my fashion sense a lot, being my first attempt to sew a proper dress for a doll using a sewing machine.

P.S. Do not copy!!!
