Golden green cocktail dress

Today I have pictures of a cocktail dress I made for my daughter.  The spring green crinkled silk was a remnant, and the beaded net was leftovers from a dress that she had made for herself.  The pattern I used as the basis for the dress is Burda 8613 that I had bought about 6 yrs ago to make a dress for her!  Obviously her shape has changed a lot since she was twelve!, so I adjusted and fitted to get a good look for her...  Luckily for her she is slender enough to carry off a sheath dress like this one.
I love these colours on her; she has green eyes and strawberry blond hair and these greens and golds just glow on her...
