Finished study (placeholder)

Placeholder study for a light garden maxi with thin straps and a full hem.

An outside dress: thin straps, a high waist, and a hem that is meant to move. The green is a placeholder for layered chiffon, not a photo of the cloth.

Keep the sketch when the real maxi is designed, and let photographs of the finished dress take the place of the flat color.
