Super cute dress. I love the fabric ❤️❤️
Sophie is such a great help!
Really brilliant with a choice of looks. I am glad that your hair is growing a little.
Wonderful work as ever miss bianca!! thank you so much for demystifying a scarfy neckline!!! I can't wait to try it out myself (though I personally am more drawn to a center front bow, haha). I do agree with your thoughts, I think that the pattern is just a bit too big and bold that it distracts too much from both your lovely face and the drama of the scarf, which i think should be the centerpiece. Maybe in a lighter brighter color with a smaller print/no print? It is a bit better with the v neck, i think there's just a bit too much going on with it so high up? But of course you look magnificent as always, i love your hair!!! I wonder if you'd ever put out a hairdressing video ? It'd be a good excuse to get some more footage of your gorgeous pink boudoir !
I like the noisy car song ❤️ when I was younger I had a car which people thought had a sports exhaust but it just had holes in the muffler 😂
Hi Bianca - I love the style, and have to agree that the size of the print makes it hard to really see the sash tie. Seems this style is meant for a solid color fabric. I'd love to see you make this style (or the other full length one) in a deep red and do some red beading on the ends of the sash.
Loved seeing how you constructed this design. Did I miss seeing how you marked your darts onto the fabric? I’ll have to troll through past videos to discover your marking technique. I thought it was fun hearing the ice cream truck bc I love that your videos are ‘real life’ and not overly produced corporate content. And of course the cats are always a delight. Would enjoy seeing how you organize your stash sometime
The lighter color dress in the example has a wider neckline, and maybe lower...that might make the difference you are looking for. Even with the 1/8" removed from your neckline, it does look much snugger. Your hair is really cute.
loved the noisy car song ☺️ the dress is fab but the sash/ bow gets a bit lost with the print which is a pity bc it's a truly great design! 💜
I enjoyed this. Thank you, Bianca!
The dress does feel more balanced with a lower neckline...maybe because the flowers in the print are competing with the flowers in the hat? Your face kind of gets lost between. I enjoy the concept though! Hopefully a bit more experimentation will sort it out 💜
Lovely fabric! I agree, the ties look better crossed around to the back.
It's beautiful, but I understand just getting an off feeling from clothing (even if people think it's cute). It's gotta feel right. Interesting pattern, looking forward to more sashy, floopy things if you try again ❤️
I love the overall concept of the dress, but you're right... It needs tweaking. I think a lighter, summery color could help. Loved the doing at the end. I am always putting thoughts to song like that. ☺️🎶
