This is my first custom solo dress! Made by the wonderful Jess Knight! I have gotten so many compliments on this dress and I (and my TCRGs) are crazy about the celtic bird design. It really brings back the traditional while still looking modern <3 15 Replies to New Dress! |

The first thing I noticed was the celtic birds!!
It is a beautiful dress & I love how it combines modern & traditional aspects.
I also LOVE anything by Jess Knight, she is amazing! |

Oh my gosh it has two of my favorite things on dresses: celtic zoomorphics and knife pleats. *drool* I think my heart stopped for a brief moment when I saw the picture. Truly STUNNING!!! (And I hate it when people use that word to describe anything  )
What happened to the dress you have as your avatar? Looks like the skirt is the same, but the avatar has a black bodice. Just curious  |

Thank you everyone! It has to be my favourite dress!
RinceorNosretep: The dress in my avatar is the exact same one. I just took it in lower lighting and there were shadows across the bodice, so the lower point of the bodice turned out looking more black than red, haha. |

Gorgeous!! If I ever get a custom-made solo dress, I like your idea: bring back traditional while looking modern!
