Victorian inspired nontraditional wedding dress decor - WIP

So, kicked my ass these past few days, or really mostly today, wish seeing to getting closer to the finish line on this dress.

Spent yesterday attaching some leaf trim and satin roses plus filigree leafs onto the skirt. Took quite a while doing all that, now I just need to sew it onto the skirt. Have some little green pearls I'm thinking I'll be using a few of for every leaf.

Today I then finished hand sewing the ruffle onto the jacket, all 160cm of it, but just look at that! Looks so much better than I had imagined, going to decorate it with lots of satin roses and those little shiny montees (they're a lot more shiny in proper daylight) and I am considering sewing a little white pearl on each side of the montees.

Also decorated a big removable bow that sits on the back of the jacket, took some of the length off of the top bow, was way too massive and looked ridiculous.

Have so much decorating left before I can call it a day for the dress, but when I get there there will be even more to do! Have jewellery, gloves, a wig and a pair of shoes to make, a fur shawl, a small purse of sorts, wedding bouquet, and, I think that's it, oh, veil! Busy, busy, busy!
