Help, I need dress advice

I altered a dress for DD - DD says it's wrong she might be right

Soupdragon & I have been playing with it on this thread

But we need more 'professional' advice - can you "Style & Beauty" please look at the short yellow & pink dress on my profile (I think it's the second pic) & tell me how to fix the skirt?

Just so you know it is for competitive Latin dancing so think 'Strictly' GrinWink

what about something like <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=ballroom+dresses&start=269&hl=en&client=safari&sa=X&rls=en&biw=1256&bih=562&addh=36&tbm=isch&prmd=imvns&tbnid=1WXbhuXsLyzFIM:&imgrefurl=dress.ankletss.com/latin-ballroom-dress/&docid=h4W0KWygSxcVGM&imgurl=i00.i.aliimg.com/photo/v0/246469034/Blue_Latin_Dress_Ballroom_Dress_9000011_ISO9001.jpg&w=580&h=805&ei=5RikT_uaNoT0-gbNuYHECA&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=80&vpy=4&dur=129&hovh=265&hovw=190&tx=101&ty=137&sig=101450852458733953599&page=15&tbnh=154&tbnw=70&ndsp=18&ved=1t:429,r:6,s:269,i:198" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this? I think the dress is too rectangular for dancing iyswim? Something with movement in the skirt might work better?

DD likes the wired skirt idea; whether my dress making skills are up to it, I'm not sure

Fingers crossed

I bought material

Lemon net
Pink chiffon
Yellow georgette

I thought to do the pink with yellow edging & the yellow with pink edging with the net underneath

Maybe?
