Finished prom dress pictures!!

...aaaaand here it is! The finished prom dress :)
My sister went to her prom this evening, wearing the dress that I made her.
Below are some pictures that I took using my lovely boy's fancy camera :)


Below is a close up of the bodice-


And here is a close up of the corset lacing up the back of the dress-





...and a full length picture of the dress. I think it really suits her! :)


Finally, a picture of both my sister and her prom date. (I decided to make a skinny tie out of the fabric instead for him to wear so that they could be matching!)


I'm very pleased with how it turned out! & I think she is too :)

What do you think?
