'Antique Hand Mirror' Flower Girl Dresses (Part 2)


This is the second part of my flower girl dresses post (for the first part click here) with the last two flower girl dresses on it. These ones are also based around the decorative antique hand mirrors that I found on several different antiques websites.

These designs take the decoration from the hand mirrors and use the patterns on the bodices of the dresses. The patterns are embroidered in shades of gold and outlined in a darker brown. Both dresses have a scooped neckline which is edged with ribbon in the same shade as the embroidery. The straps of the dress are also edged with ribbon, and ribbon is used as a belt around the waist, separating the bodice from the skirt.

The gold dress has a fairly full skirts, whereas the pink dress has a straighter skirt. Both skirts are ankle length, and ribbons are used around the hem. The pink dress has a single ribbon around the hem, whereas the gold dress has two ribbons around the hem.
I hope you liked this design. For more designs, check back here next week, or visit my every-day wear blog: www.bronzedaledesigns.blogspot.co.uk/.
