Sometimes I like to pretend I am a wedding consultant and help a fake bride plan her wedding. It is just one of the things I do when I should be doing something else but want to have a little fun. =)
My latest pretend wedding to plan has been a 1930's wedding. I found lots of of dresses but not quite what I (or my client=)) wanted so.....I went to the drawing board. Being a sewer I know that you can make whatever you want most of the time. I found a few dresses and ideas of what I wanted on Pinterest and since Emma was a 1930's doll I thought I would use her as my model and went to work.
This is what I came up with. A dress of satin overlaid with Organza, pearls or rhinestones adorn the belt and sleeve and neck hems. A long train trails out from the back. The short veil is attached to the back of the head with a comb. The same pearls or rhinestones on the dress adorn the headpiece at the top to cover the comb. Long gloves come almost to the hem of the sleeves
