If you reversed the color, the dress would be more flattering and the beige would not be next to your face, where it does you no favors. Of course, then you would be rather orange, but if you redid this design in different colors, the same principle would apply : darker color on the inside panels = slimmer you! <br /><br />Each dress is an opportunity to learn and improve, so it's not a failure, just a first draft! Your construction skills are great and you have the talent, so don't get discouraged!amandanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7865941540888671176.post-76259202936862081662010-10-28T21:19:37.364-07:002010-10-28T21:19:37.364-07:00oh i just love what your mom said. it makes me tea...oh i just love what your mom said. it makes me teary. what a sweet, supportive mother you have.<br /><br />i too think the dress is great. it's fun and different and shows that you are obviously very talented.<br /><br />put it up for sale on here if you really don't like it. i bet you someone would buy it real quick!nikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06453592109250456104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7865941540888671176.post-23794892755417671302010-10-28T19:56:38.428-07:002010-10-28T19:56:38.428-07:00I agree with Anna, that's the exact thing i th...I agree with Anna, that's the exact thing i thought the second I saw the picture.

People all around you don't even attempt to create like you do, because they are afraid to fail...and that is really a waste...not to mention boring.<br />Take it ALL in... you are an artist... artists take risks and push themselves to find something new..something of themselves in their art. Be patient and KEEP WORKING!!!!<br /><br />Your biggest fan... momLaura Berryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13870031154741827327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7865941540888671176.post-89484764122059049262010-10-28T13:05:52.980-07:002010-10-28T13:05:52.980-07:00Ellen, I am really confused by this post also.

You love it! You hate it! You're crazy!<br />Ok here are my thoughts. Don't give up on this dress, I really like it. I think if you lengthened the sleeves and re-did the neck line into a low scoop you would like it a lot better. Lose the silver details. Just my opinion. The design is darling, the colors are great. You are super talented! <br />Also. I love you.ronnieahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09884320262505566427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7865941540888671176.post-68470366302094730742010-10-28T12:12:50.550-07:002010-10-28T12:12:50.550-07:00Wait?..
