Fancy Fabrics Challenge 2013

Mother-of-the-bride ensemble

Skirt, top and jacket made from Indian sari

For my daughter’s wedding, I made this 3-piece ensemble from an irridescent Indian sari, using the metallic border to full advantage. I extended the narrow border on the two front edges around the neckline and closed it with three metal ball buttons and thread loops. It can be worn without the jacket as a 2-piece dress and I have enough fabric left for slim pants or a shorter skirt.

    Beautiful use of a Sari!

    A very well thought out use of the sari border, you would have been a picture of elegance.
