Oh ! If you can do something, choose the HBP London Premiere dress ! It's so lovely, and can be worn chic or causual ! And the neckline is really feminine. But the one of the early show would also be a great choice if you can make the interesting gold buttons on the sleves and the light ruffled skirt...
Otherwise, it depends of you're taste : rather hot red or sweet prints ? Mini or maxi dress ?

Hmm, I was thinking of making both of those dresses considering there far the best I have seen.  But I will have to ask about how it much it will cost per outfit. So, I will keep update! |

Well, I think the dress from the London premiere will cost more as it's a maxi, and the cut seems more complicated. But if you can do both, it's awesome !

These two would be the easiest, but if you were really ambitious, go for the London premiere dress! |

Thanks guys! I think I will make the red early show dress. It looks very realaxing. I would like to make the Ossie Clarks dress abit modifed. I don't have to have it as a maxi dress.

Ok, so my sister emailed her friend if she can make the red dress and she said yes. It would be about $75.00 to $85.00. I'm in need of dresses so hopefully my dad will be ok with it. That price is not bad compared to $400!

Nice I might try and make one of the Charles anastase dresses they look kinda simeple if you can get the material. I think the Hbp London premiere dress would look great if it were just above the knee that way you could wear it when dressing up or casual  |

Ooh, what an excellent idea! I like all of the dresses from the HBP promotion, they are different from eachother and really unique and elegant. The red dress is a good choice as it can be dressed up or down depending the shoes it's paired up with. The most difficult one would be the Proenza Schouler photocall dress because it has different textures and colours. The Charles Anastase would be the easier provided you can find a big polka dot fabric. Please let us know how it goes! angellaura: I always forget to tell you yay for Chuck and Blair! I love your signature! They are my favourite GG couple! <3<3<3 |

VoguePatterns has some great patterns for dress-making. I think this is a decent match for her London premiere, and this is a good one for the Early Show.

Oh ! This website is great ! The second one (match for the early show dress) is really similar ! For the London premiere match, it's nice, but it doesnt have this particular "colar" I love so much. You know, like two strip of fabric almost verical. It's really feminine. But I suppose you can do it that way if you already know how to use a pattern.

If you could combine the neckline of this dress with the one I first posted, I think you'd have a great match. It's not a wrap dress, but hey - you wouldn't be suffering from any wardrobe malfunctions! |
