Ms.Fashionista should have a prom dress and I guess mermaid style would be a perfect fit for her hourglass figures.

Materials: ( I used )
2mm crochet hook
Cotton crochet thread: variegated lilac, purple
Needle
Scissors
Note: I used chainless starting dc for every first dc of each round/row instead of ch 3. There’s another good crochet technique to use is ch 2, dc into same stitch ( counted as 1st dc). In the pattern below you’ll see I simply state dc for every first dc of each round/row, so just choose your best technique 🙂
Special stitch used:
2dc- V stitch: ( 2 dc, ch 1, 2 dc ) into same stitch or space
