"Fetching Femme Fatale"

Fabric: Lightweight white satin, light weight black satin
White satin fits a full petti, shown here on 100-yard crystalline one (not included). Gored skirt falls in a beautiful circle. Bottom tier is made from white satin, with black lace on the hem. White satin ruffle is finished with black lace on the hem, with white lace along the top edge. It is attached with ruffled white lace, and sweeps up at the side seams where it is adorned with a large black ribbon bow.
The attached black apron is self lined satin and interfaced and the outer edge is finished with a specialty white eyelet lace. It is made to line up with the lace of the bodice, and a white grosgrain ribbon sits at the intersection of the waist seam. This ribbon is also used on the wrist cuff.
Bodice consists of a split center front, with interfaced black satin on the bottom and white eyelet on the top. It is inserted into the black satin base, and the neckline all the way down the center front seam is finished with a specialty white eyelet trim, and inserted into the strip of that lace is black ruffled lace. Along the top edge of the eyelet insert is finished with two rows of black ruffled lace along the top, and white lace opposite it.
Sleeves contain all the elements of the dress. They are made from the eyelet fabric. They feature the traditional UniKaren triangular overlay in interfaced white satin to help them hold their shape. The outer edge is finished with wide white floral scalloped lace, as well as the black lace used on the bodice inset. The black lace used on the skirt hem covers the elasticized area of the sleeve, and the hem uses the specialty white eyelet lace. A little black satin ribbon bow adorns the bottom of each triangle.
Black satin sashes stem from the side seams and tie into a lovely feminine bow at the center back. There is a center back zipper, with a hook & eye closure at the top.
Matching accessories will complete this outfit. There are two headbands, one with a black and white grosgrain ribbon bow which matches the wrist cuff.
The wrist cuff is made with the wide black lace used on the skirt side bows. Over that is black grosgrain ribbon stitched on, and over that is white grosgrain ribbon stitched on. It features pretty white scalped floral lace that also used on the sleeve, and features a white grosgrain ribbon double bow on the front.
There is a choker made of white satin with black lace along the bottom edge, with a black bow in the center.
And the other headband features a stand-up satin frilly ruffle with lace along the top and bottom edges.
All you need is a feather duster and stiletto heels to pull off this Femme Fatale look <smile>.
