Rosalinda's gown started with the the gown in the upper left corner. It was, first, separated into a 2-piece. Then, we removed the skirt from the black dress in the upper center. We used the black skirt as the base and layered the burgundy skirt over it. The black lace from the 1980s prom dress in the lower right corner was added as trim. A final front swag was made from stock fabric.
The bustle started with the bodice of the gown in the upper right, then had the red shawl from the lower left added. Trim from the lower middle was applied to the ends of the shawl. The skirt from the upper middle was, also, used as the train.
To the bodice, we added shoulder straps and covered them in amaryllis petals that came from a super clearanced Christmas wreath. (you never know where you'll find your materials!)
Finally, rhinestones were applied all over the gown, straps, and bustle....
