Opposite- Kerry's design work & a close up of the detailing.

A footnote from the designer............

This gown was a lovely commission - we designed a gown with two different straps (one wide softly gathered & sculptured strap & one thin pale green strap decorated with hand painted & beaded french lace. Kerry wanted an antique look with soft muted colours & lots of subtle, blending 3-dimentional detailing which included a lovely silk rose, delicate feathers, hand painted & hand beaded french lace & swaged organza detailing on the corset. This gown took a lot of handwork & planing & it shows in the results (I new as I was making up the gown, how good it was going to look & I wasn't dissapointed).
