test shots

OK, so here is a test of ideas...

With a grey silk sash to tie in the grey hem pleats:



and here is a velvet NF era overskirt I already have, to give an idea of the skirt with a black overskirt:



But ya know, there's no reason I can't also have a grey overskirt. That way I can put it with this as well as any black underskirt. Just a thought :)

I LOVE the sash!! The black overskirt is nice, but what if you did it in grey, and added a band of black pleating to it as trim. I don't know if you remember my dress from your picnic this summer, but on my overskirt i had a band that was about 4" wide. It was pleated and sat about 4" in from the edge of the overskirt.

Great minds think alike. If you read back, you'll see that was my original plan :D Yay!

YAY!! I love it.. I can't wait to see it. I'm such a sucker for pleats.
