Description
My fiancΓ© said this is "the prettiest Disney princess ever". I think he meant it as a compliment...I had a lot of fun with this one. I took the initial color palette from two of my favorite things: chocolate and plums. I threw the green gloves in for contrast, and to keep from being overly matchy-matchy. Then I went to town with the textures and patterns. Since there was already so much going on with those, I went easy on the shading. I also used gradients to cast light and shadows; two of each in different colors and sizes. I think it works, but I'm always happy to hear suggestions on how I can improve!

Wow, I am amazed. I really like the dress and the ruffles, and I can see where the chocolate and plums come in. Nice work!
