Soft Pink Silk Skirt With A Little Petticoat

I found a beautiful pink Victorian-style silk dress with a sewn in tulle petticoat at a garage sale, and just HAD to have it. It (unfortunately) fit dreamily everywhere except on my bust, and was too long for me. I cut off the bodice and about 8-12 inches of fabric, made a new waistband, and kept the ties that had been on the sides of the bodice, which tie neatly in the back.
