marie antoinette

this is the very first dress i ever ever made, with the help of my mom and aunt.  this dress was made for a marie antoinette competition held by helmut hair salon, where i won first prize!!! 

for the photo shoot i was able to get the help of my two besties.   i used my beautiful and gorgeous best friend katy as my model and my other lovely bestie jen did the make up and hair.

we drove around looking for the best location that edmonton had to offer.  we fell onto this location and totally lucked out!  we were able to find a construction area in a developing neighborhood. there just happened to be a large mess of junk that katy got right into.
