DD and the dress look absolutely perfect; add the purple shoes to the mix and wow! Those quality fabrics make so much difference in the final product; I personally hate those poly "lookalikes."

Just beautiful! You should be proud of yourself, and I know your daughter is proud of you and the dress. You inspire me!

Stunning work, Lindsay! The dress looks fantastic and your choice of fabrics and amazing workmanship really puts this into a class of its own. Very, very impressive!

Really special dress, fabulous ingredients, beautifully made and a terrific fit.

Congrats - if I were your daughter, you wouldn't be doing much sewing for yourself after this lovely creation. Beautiful work, very "hot" in an age appropriate way. What a good mom.

This is such a beautiful dress, you did a fantastic job.

What a killer dress and your couture work is impeccable! DD looks gorgeous though it's clear that your girl would stop traffic if wearing a burlap bag. Are those *purple* satin heels? Be still my heart. DD is a vision and you've provided the goods. Stunning, Lily

Showstopper of a dress! You did a wonderful knockoff of the inspiration dress!

What a seriously fantastic outfit. And, I'm a little in love with the shoes. I love that this is going to teach her more about quality clothing than anything!

A very beautiful dress - and thanks for the great write-up, I learned several great tips!

Red carpet work! The lining even looks yummy - I'd want to lay around the house in it! Wonderful job.

How fabulous this is! Thank you also for including the tips on working with 4 ply. I need that soon.

Oh-la-la! What a gorgeous dress on a beautiful daughter!! This is truly a "Project Runway" winner!!! Many thanks for the link to the invisible zipper tutorial.

Bernadette W said...
Truly fabulous! BTW- BE VERY GLAD that per your blog your DD is not into Facebook--it is addictive and a major time waster. OK, so we have PR, but only Meggie LuLu has homework waiting for her!

This is just lovely, absolutely beautiful. I wish I had someone to make me dresses of this caliber! Amazing....

This is absolutely gorgeous and your daughter wears it with style and grace. I like it better than the inspiration! Elegant and hip at the same time. I love it.

Oh well everything has been said ? ! ? Your daughter must have been the most proud teen of that party. What an amazing, gorgeous and so "tendance" dress. I love what you did. I want one in black and a little longer ... since I am no longer 16. Génial cette robe. bravo Lindsay.

Excellent dress for a party!! Love it!!!

OMG, Lindsay, I don't know how I missed this on the 14th, was looking for reviews of this pattern and found yours. Your DD looks absolutely breathtaking in her beautiful dress!!! I am soooo inspired now. Thank you for this review. Absolutely fabulous!

Nice dress (Yikes, a little short - oh, to be that young). It isn't every your lady that gets a 4-ply silk dress to wear. Thanks for sharing Marji's tips.
