A black dress affair

Back in August my cousin was celebrating her upcoming wedding with a bridal shower. It was a very different shower. She had it at night, cocktail style, where all guest were to wear little black dresses. It was a cute idea. They had asked me to make some cupcakes that would suit the night. So naturally I made cupcakes with little martini glasses with olives and some with little black dresses. I have these plastic molds that when pressed on fondant give it a textured look, so to make the dress ones a little fancier I used the molds on the white background and put the dresses on top. I also made some with just basic whipped butter cream icing with silver edible glitter. I love making cupcakes, but they are tedious little things. Overall I was super pleased with how they turned out.
The pictures aren't the greatest, but I forgot to take one at the actual event.
