Royal Wedding Bridesmaid doll

Some more pictures of Freya dressed in her Royal Wedding bridesmaid dress. I studied lots of photos of the wedding of Kate and William to get the best replica dress that I could.


The dress is made from a lovely, heavy weight ivory fabric with a soft sheen. It has a circular skirt arranged in wide box pleats.She has an underskirt which is stiffened to give the skirt a very full appearance.

It has puffed sleeves trimmed with tiny pearl beads. The neckline and cuffs are trimmed with ivory lace.
The back of the dress has pearl bead buttons although it is actually fastened with press studs. A matching ivory ribbon forms the sash.
I thought the skirt looked too short. It was quite difficult to decide on the diameter of the skirt and once cut out there was nothing else to do but add wide lace to give it the extra length. She is wearing ballet pumps made from the same fabric as the dress.
