2-peice Blue Dress

This was an experiment on a summer & winter variation & some hand painted warp (Weft is all black). The finished article has hand beaded accents at the blouse side vents, skirt front vent & across the deep V ion the back of the blouse (helps hold it on the shoulders) It was included in the runway show at HGA Convergence 2002 in Vancouver, BC & the model had the skirt on back to front! (I even had it labled which way was front but I guess things get a little crazy back stage!)  Anyway it was a fun event & I saw so many beautiful things & learned a lot, I loved it!
