Red Hot Bride

I usually shun requests for bridal anything. When Leslie contacted me about doing her dress I was skeptical, until I she showed me what she looking for. Red wedding dress? I'm in! She was such a fun & funky client and I had a lot of fun layering 3 shades of red tulle to create just the right color mix. The silk dupioni had just enough sheen to make it formal and is so easy to work with. We accented the waistband with a simple black floral ribbon. To top it all off, I made a cropped faux-fur shrug.
