Very inspirational!!! I love how you take poly satin and make it so much more special than anything I would have dreamed of!!! Great interpretation of the Splurge vs. Steal page. I bookmarked that as I love the look. Here, no one has coats, so one could make a jacket to wear over the dress to make it just right for office type jobs, leaving you with a dress that also is perfect for dinner, a wedding or whatever without the jacket. Thanks for this review!!!

Wow! Both dresses are fantastic! The red and black is a great knockoff of the Sow dress! And I love how you used it the pattern to save the other - it looks as though you intended to make it that way! Fabulous work!

You're stunning in that dress. It's an upgrade to the Peter Som original. Thanks for sharing your creative process and technical steps.

Well, HERE YOU ARE, looking MARVELOUS again. It's starting to get a little irritating. :o) BOTH of tehse dresses are SO pretty. I thought SURELY the black/red one was silk. And, of course, that GREEN one is SO eye-catching. You wear these dresses BEAUTIFULLY. As always, appreciate all of your pictures and your very helpful reviews. :o)
