Love it! It's a great look, especially in that fabric. I also like how you doubled the fabric for the skirt section. Neat idea!

This is my favorite thing you've made so far. I love the concept and the inspiration and you executed your idea perfectly. Love the low-slung belt and the fabric, too. Fantastic!

Your RTW is so much cuter than the inspiration photo! Nice job. Looks like a fun dress to wear around the Island!

Beautiful and not so "fashionable" as to be unwearable! KWIM? You look great and the dress construction sounds interesting. Nice job!
