I really like the effect! That's a nice use of materials too. I personally love seeing all the different things people are using for their bodices beyond hand-cutting sequins (which is no less interesting or impressive, but it's nice to see variety)

>Though I wish it was longer, it looks so stumpy on the dressform
It does look really short but if you compare it to the where the bodice hits on that dressform, I would guess that the person making this has a thick waist and is short-waisted to boot. Elsa's bodice stops at the natural waist, then dips downward in the front, which is what this person's bodice does - it's just that their waist is higher and their body is not willowy and long like the characters in the film so they adjusted accordingly.

It's probably one of those things where the dress will "make more sense" when you see it with the skirt and moreso on the person. I've got a long torso so the bodice I made for my dress looked absurdly long when it was just on the dressform by itself, but when I attached the skirt etc. and tried everything on, it was in proportion for me.
