This is the next thing for my lovely client Cécile Mimieux,
there is still lots more to do on it, but I have to have a fitting before I can finish this.
the collar will be decorated with more pearls, and I will be making a head piece called a french hood to match the dress.
To see more of this come and follow my blog and as I get further there will be more shown.
