First, she did a spray test on some fabric samples, using the same silk, tulle and lace.
Now, she was all set to go with the dress. So, she got the dress outside on plastic ready for spraying. Fortunately, the weather didn’t pose any obstructions and she was able to work all day layering up color with drying periods in between. Felicity, then, masked the lace trim with tape and started with the work. Layering from below the lace trim, she started with two shades of yellow and then orange and the first shade of red.
Felicity created this realistic yet unusual wedding look as part pf her fantasy creation.
Then, she worked outwards towards the hem, the bands of color widening as she came round the back of the train. Three shades of red were graduated into a touch of purple at the very edge, which made the yellow at the other end of the rainbow really ‘pop’.
