black dress with purple roses

[mekyria]

This project has been going on for the past weeks, but is nearly finished and I know that I probably won't have time to decorate it properly with extra bows and trims, so I'm posting it as is.
This was lolita inspired, but I wanted clean lines and more mature look so I chose a simple basic pattern. I absolutely adore the fabric, found it on the local fabric market. A nice cotton with pruple roses. Shown with a petticoat underneath, I'm considering making an extra black petticoat with super-poof because it would look really cool and retro. Blouse is a 9 euro sales find from H&M.
