Patterns used:
Jess Dekker @jessdekker1
Patterns used:
Juniper with closed straps and hand sewn ties (she did this to prevent the tulle stretching out)
Fabric used:
Satin and tulle (Spotlight)
Sherrel Williams @eliza.and.company
Sherrel loved testing the new Olive jumpsuit and knew she wanted to make another. Wedding Week was the perfect opportunity to make a fancier Olive! ISherrel's daughter thinks pants are “boring” so she added a peplum skirt (in her culture, peplums are everything🙌🏾). Also, the v-neck faux wrap helps with easy potty time. The shoulder straps slip on and off.
Patterns used:
Modified Olive
Fabric used:
Quilting cotton, tulle and beaded lace (JoAnn)
Angelique Domasig @pinkpiablythe
Angelique's daughter really looooves maxi dresses combined with long sleeves, so she decided Willow's sweetheart bodice and tieback would be perfect for this outfit. Her creation is beautiful and we love that it checked off each of her daughter's dreams for a dress!
Patterns used:
Willow bodice and skirt (lengthened) with Jasmine long sleeves
Fabric used:
Shiny silky satin for main fabric and cotton for lining from a local fabric shop in Bahrain.
Jess @mcmamamade
Jess' eldest daughter inspired her look for Wedding Week! She prefers pants to dresses these days and has lived in the Olive jumpsuits Jess has made her. She saw some dressy youth jumpsuits on Pinterest and used those ideas as her starting point. Jess made a maxi dress for her little sister and can just imagine these girls walking down the aisle together as flower girls this summer!
Patterns used:
Big Sister: Calendula bodice with woven ties, lengthened bodice and size 14 sleeves; Olive pants.
Little Sister: Olive with a maxi double skirt and a self drafted bodice overlay and lengthened ties.
Fabric used:
Dobby Georgette (Alyssa May Design); rayon knit (Sincerely Rylee)
