First Latin Dress Ever

This was made entirely on a whim and I used the Yale Dance Competition on Dec 2nd 06 as my deadline. The material is actually purple lycra although cameras have a weird way of turning it blue.

I didn't take many photos on that day so I don't have a proper full length photo of the front yet. Parts of the top and skirt had lighter purple Swarovskis glued onto them although you won't be able to see it in detail here. The skirt was a circle skirt with gathers on the hips and the bra top on the inside was black with black flat sequins.

I was incredibly paranoid about my costume falling apart on the dance floor at first but then had to convince myself that everything was secure, and it was. Jayson wanted to wear a purple bandanna with my excess material and thus, the purple ninjas were born. Boy will I miss him when I graduate and leave.
