Tessa Valdes is the Sea Princess!  She and her Pirate Dennis will be celebrating their wedding anniversary very soon and she asked me to do her gown.   This is a sketch of what I had in mind for her.  It’s inspired by mermaids and Venus emerging from a half shell: two iconic images fused into one.

The peplum actually lifts up and becomes the shell. LOL! The skirt will be made from thousands of “scales” made from hand cut mikado silk and the bodice is inspired by the waves of the ocean. This will be done by using crystals suspended like a chandelier.  The overall color of the gown is mother of pearl.  I am so excited for the party because I am sure it will really be magical!

HUGS!
RAJO!
