From strapless to stunningly modest.

It was a simple  strapless dress with a shawl  but we wanted  a nice modest dress .

 It came with a shawl that was double, Navy on one side and white on the other. 

I just cut it apart. and made the top from the navy and did a rolled hem on the white and made a scarf that can be used in several ways shown here as a sash. 

I ended up putting a tuck in the front.  It makes it fit better to the dress but it also adds interest.  I like it better than plain.

Just embellish as you wish.  I have been saving this beautiful lace for many years and it finally found it's perfect match! 

This would also be beautiful in a softer color like pink or yellow.
