What are your thoughts on Tafetta as a material for an evening gown?
I know it gets a bad name because of a million BM dress autrocities that have been made with it .Plus, a lot of uncomfortable little girl dresses have been made with it.
But the last two times I went to buy an evening down I've ended up with a simple dress made of tafetta. No beading, no rhinestones, nothing but a lovely cut and pretty irridescent fabric.
And yet when I tell someone my dress is tafetta I get a nose wrinkle.
