Talk about a head-turner! With it's figure hugging shape and statement sleeves, Heaven is sure to make you stand out in a crowd. The princess seams and invisible side zip give
it the perfect fit. The neckline and top of the sleeves create a striking trapezium, which is a lovely contrast with the sleeves’ puffed wrists. The only thing left to do is dazzle in your handmade dress.

Fabric advice

Heaven looks best in heavier, more structured fabrics. Anything to thin or fluid will be difficult to shape properly. Tencel and cotton (denim or poplin, for example) all work wonderfully.
