I needed a dress with pink for a wedding, but I don't wear pink. So, I conferenced with my trusty sewing advisor and came up with this combo. I had decided on the Cirque dress by Marcy Tilton. My local fabric store, Heddy's Fabrics, had this tan lace fabric with metallic highlights. The fiber content is cotton/nylon. But where is the pink? I bought bright fuchsia rayon challis and incorporated it into the ensemble. I lined the collar with the rayon and made an underdress/slip of the rayon. The pink shows through the holes of the lace but isn't overpowering. I like it!
