So, as I understand it, I can describe the dress in my own words?
The Handmade and Hand Appliqued Dress pictured has peach knit and silver-grey velveteen. The gorgeous ribbon and bead detailing adds a touch of flair to the design.

The dress in the Fall Shopping and Gift guide is mainly peach, with two diagonal peach ribbons tied into bows in the front. Between the ribbons is another fabric (can’t quite tell what it is, though it looks like it has wide vertical stripes in the picture). The dress is sleeveless and beautiful!

It’s a pretty peach sleeveless, bisected by a decorated overlay around the hips. Ribbon bows at the top and bottom of the overlay section make it a little more playful than formal. Simple and adorable!

I love this peach, handmade & hand-appliqued dress. Beautiful combination of fabrics and trim. Unfortunately it wouldn’t fit me but it would make a super gift for my daughter, who is very fashion conscious. Not only would it look great on her, she would absolutely love it.

I think Aelisheva’s dress is a whimsicle, delicate creation. Aelisheva’s feminine peach knit dress is lovingly accented with a soft grey velveteen fabric, satiny ribbon, and a sprinkling of beads…

This ethereal dress will turn heads. I adore the color–a lovely soft peach knit, set off nicely with silver velveteen. A closer look shows extra touches with ribbons and beads. The overall effect is exquisite. And as it’s handmade, the buyer gets to revel in the knowledge that only SHE owns this unique masterpiece. But the website has many equally fabulous designs, so one’s friends don’t have to be too jealous.

“peach knit and silver-grey velveteen with beading and ribbon detailing.” - this was the description given about that dress.
Though i cant exactly feel the dress itself, i think it is gauzy and light in peachy hues with a silvery touch of hand sewn beads on velvet, with a touch of feminism created by the satin ribbons.

Or am I meant to write my own description for the dress? In that case, it’s a beautiful peachy rose ribbed knitted dress with soft gray-blue around the hips, a ribbon around the waist, and a scattering of ivory beads.

My description of the dress? Something about “Turn heads and hearts in this gorgeous handmade dress. Peach knit and dove grey velveteen are lovingly accented with hand-appliqued beading and ribbon to create this romantic couture confection.”
Or something along those lines- the dress does have quite romantic leanings, in cut and color. I also have the perfect fascinator to match: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=5643547
