The Dress

[icaruslaughing.livejournal.com]

Hello, all!

My wedding is over, but as normally happens, I still have The Dress. It's a lovely dress, except for these big bell sleeves. I have the idea to rip the sleeves off (they're rather cumbersome), and wear it as a regular dress (screw posterity!). However, it's blinding white. I do not <3 blinding white dresses. Can anyone give me any tips for dying or otherwise coloring the damn thing? It's georgette and sateen (is that how you spell it? not satin, the faker stuff), with a bodice of a polyester/silk blend (50/50, I think).

Any ideas? At all? I'd rather not have to break out the Crayola markers...

PS- I've looked through the memories and not found anything relevant... please help?
