Made by a Fabricista: YouTube Edition | Marty - Bryce Quinlan's Autumn Ball Dress
This was another one of those times when I saw the fabric and instantly knew what it needed to become. I've wanted to do book-themed garments for a while and Bryce Quinlan's Autumn Ball dress from House of Sky and Breath was an excellent place to start.
While the book gave a good description of the dress, it also left much up to interpretation. The key details were 1. a plunging neckline. 2. a mermaid skirt. 3. high slit. I eventually landed on a bustier style top because I've been wanting one for a while, and it really felt like it fit with her character.
I had no idea what I was doing 90% of the time which made this one of the most stressful builds I've done in a while. But it also taught me a lot. When I make a dress like this in the future, I will definitely be looking up a few tutorials to make sure I get all the supports right.
In the end, this was one of the most rewarding projects I've done. I was able to do something new and felt amazing in this dress. 10/10 would recommend. I also got a lot of compliments when I did the photoshoot. which always helps.
