Looks like something from a movie. Gorgeous. Different. Amazing.

That dress looks a little like the one from Easter Parade that I love so much.
That dress is like Gwen Stefani’s wedding dress!! I wanted a replica of her dress since like forever! Will totally be book marking Jessica’s page!
wai-ching + gwen. love it.
What a wonderful dress!
Very cool! I had an idea of doing a TTD session and pouring red paint on it, much like this one! I was inspired by “The Fall”, the scene of the towering white cloth drenched with red paint at the bottom and bleeding up towards the top… great stuff
Wei Ching has a green version that I almost went for:
