Hmm... that would be quite a challenge Hye Park Lover... I want to be able to imagine the actress actually wearing the dress... the dress should suit the actress in addition to being a good design. If you can make the grunge look suit one of these actresses I'd say why not?

I guess a point of departure for this challenge is to treat the actress you choose as if she was actually a client.

Here's mine for Reese Witherspoon.

I'm guessing she's a fan of the empire waist, so I did a dress with an empire waist for her.
The fabrics for the dress are a layer of pale purple silk and then a layer of purple lace with some gold in it.
The ribbons should be pale pink silk and the waist is like a belt going in and out of the purple dress, hope it makes sense.
The shoes a glittery red Dorothy shoes, to add some flamboyancy.

Hope you like it.

Oh, by the way, I haven't done it, but imagine a pink silk ribbon around her neck.

Excellent Hana! Thanks for getting the ball rolling with such a pretty dress for Reese.

I know I'm not eligible this week but here's my entry just to help get us all started...



I chose the magnificent Dame Judi Dench. I wanted something that was regal without being fussy, so I chose a silk jersey fabric. The dress has an empire waist with a boat neck. The jersey skims the figure, and a full circle skirt adds drama and movement. The deep indigo colour complements Judi's silver hair. The sleeves are pushed up to the elbow adding an element of casual comfort. The highlight of the dress is a looped white jersey cowl that functions as a shawl as well as a design element. Worn with diamond drop earrings.
