I made this for my wedding. I drew up the designs and then drafted it on some cheap fabric. My mom took over the base of it while I did the corset that went with it. After she got the basics done she gave it back to me and I did all the finishing details. The part that was tricky was getting the bust section to look correct. Although it didn't look quite as I had envisioned it still turned out rather well. ....that and the tulle under section. I had allowed her to shop for the tulle and lace and she got some rather thin "wedding" tulle (also hence the ridiculous price) that brought the price to a ridiculous $100+ after I'd only spent $20 on the fantastic pinstripe fabric (thirteen yards for only twenty!) Anyhow it was a total pain in the ass to work with.
