Red Evening Formal

  I was 15 years old when I sewed this; it was also the first formal I ever sewed.  It’s my own original design that I created and sewed as a project in my sewing class.  I used a pattern to help me get the basic outline of the dress but I moved the zipper to the back of the dress because of the sleeves that I added. I also added the shear, gathered fabric around the bust.
