It is finished. It seems that this is what you get when staring at pictures of trees and leaves while listening to a mix of Rock/Alternative and Wagner's Siegfried... It's kinda "Tarzan-y," but it works. I like the skirt best. What say you, Clover?

Look a bit like they covered themselves with glue and ran through a rainforest...

Nah, that would be a little less planned. Except the armband. That totally looks like she put glue on her arm and stuck it in a leaf pile (which is the effect I was going for, with a slightly different description...).

Maybe she ran through the rainforest and then stopped on the other side to fix it all up..?

Couldn't be the rainforest, Limbo. Autumn only occurs in Temperate latitudes, and rainforests [unless you're factoring in British Columbia's 'temperate rainforest'] are distinctly tropical.
I like it a lot, Aindel... but rather then have a joined back, would it be feasable to have it as an open-back design with a sort of cowl draping from the shoulders? If I'm going to do an autumn theme, I'd like to have leaves sewn onto the dress, and could use the cowl/shoulder train as a sort of... autumn windstorm idea. The twining ivy I really like--I could pry achieve that effect with henna--and wind ivy into my hair. XD

So turn the top into a halter at the back, you mean, so that the two leaves join around the back of the neck?

You can have golden and brown leaves in a rainforest... when a leaf like that doesn't get enough sun it turns yellow...

But then they're wilted... Y_Y And not autumny... wilted is sketchy. Oh HEY! Do you guys get autumn down in Aussieland?

The leaves could have browned after being torn from the trees.

She ran through the UNDERGROWTH... it's only the leaves on top that are green... the ones on the bottom are mostly brown...

I didn't mean to start a botany argument. Really I didn't. XD And she could be very acrobatic and move easily amongst the treetops.

...but did she choose to move amongst the treetops or travel through the undergrowth...

I don't know, knowing Clover, if she was some sort of Autumn Goddess, she'd probably do both. But Hey, treetops are more fun. Especially for the asians.

But I'm not Asian! Also, haa, yay Trey. Though what's THAT supposed to mean? I'n actually confused. I can be everywhere at ONCE!

I think she'd choose to go through the treetops more often, being Autumn, in order to make the leaves fall.
