My 20th Sketch

I came up with the idea for my next design, which is actually my 20th of the project. For the first time I, I designed a long dress which comes up to the feet of the person. I was initially going for a simple summer dress like this:

But In the end i combined it with flaps on the center and heavy details on the chest area. To enhance the summer essence on the dress, I suppose flower prints, or flower-colored/patterned materials will be best to illustrate the seasonal theme of this simple dress. The sketch turned out to look very much glamorous and elegant, I spent quite a long time on it as it was pretty hard to draw the person's body shape and hair. But in the end I managed to look at my old sketches, including my practice sketches I have done a while ago to be able to draw a proportional body pose.
