Description This is my submission for this month's challenge of This month we had a Casion theme. So let's roll the dice

important source of my design:
The 1920s... obviously. I love the flair of that era. The gangsters, the money, the bars, the flapper-dresses, the glamour. The people back then always looked stylish and sparkly^^

brief description of my design:
I mixed the flapper-dress with something more flashy, like a showgirl. She's got feathers and gems and sequins.
I actually like the neckline tough it might seem a little too much going on. There's this two-coloured band holding it together and there are little golden sequins sewn to it and dangling down to "cover" the V-shape. And the finish is a top of a peacock feather.
She's got some peacock feathers woven into her (white) feather skirt. And above that there are some emeralds and some more golden sequins.
Her headband is adorned by a saphire and... of course... more golden sequins. At the side she's wearing a single long peacock feather. And some golden sequins dangling down above her ear.
The pearls around her neck and her wrist have a little spade-pendant.

And for those who want to bend their legs, like she does: [link]


Enjoy^^


Edit: I didn't win, but was 1st Runner-up.

Yeah, it's awesome. Always wanted to have a dress from that age. Maybe not that colourful like this one though

i dont know ive seen some of the others and they are kind of expected. they arent really creative. I liked yours because it looked fresh and the 20's theme was a nice touch plus the pose put personality into it and alot of people forget to do that.

I always think the "models" should have their own personality and therefor should have a specific pose and even bodyshape^^

Lovely design!!! You must have read a bit of my mind! O.O I was thinking about going "historical" as well, haha.

I think you did an excellent job, I can picture someone going to the casino wearing that! *imagines a nice movie's scene with a super elegant lady wearing this design*

ah... I'd go for something between the 20s and the 50s, a somewhat wide range of choices. lol
