WHAT'S NEW IN THE GOWN GALLERY?

This is my first of six dresses planned for 'Short Stories' a capsule collection of above-the-knee chic for brides going the cocktail/civil ceremony route.  This dress is called, 'Jocelyn', with a silk dupioni fitted bodice and full  embroidered organza skirt.  The organza sash ties at the waist accented with two hand rolled silk roses and a black and white polka dot ribbon.  The petticoats are separate.  I usually design the slips as a separate component for versatility, especially with the shorter styles that can be switched around and worn under other skirts in your wardrobe post wedding.  This dress will go up on my site, Amy-Jo Tatum Bridal Couture soon.  The good news is, shorter dresses like this one run around $1,100.00
