Made with Liberty = love!
This is my second dress from
Stylish Dress Book and I'm just as happy with this dress as I was with the
first.
It's a simple 'v' neck dress, no zipper or buttons, with bands around the neckline and waist, although you really can't see them much on mine. I added a tie to the back to bring in a little volume.
The fabric was from Shaukat and is called
Tomary.
The only changes I made to the pattern was to lengthen the bust darts slightly, shorten the hem and add the tie. Next time I'll probably make the 'v' a little deeper, just slightly, maybe just a half inch or so...
Now I just need the Sydney weather to warm up a little so it can get some wear.
Happy Sewing!
Cute! It would make a great maxi dress pattern too.
ReplyDeleteAdorable, perfect for Summer. Hopefully it warms up for you down there, it is plenty warm here (although last week was a different story, I had a cardigan on some days!)
ReplyDeletewhat a great dress! the ties at the back were a clever idea. the more I see of this book, the more excited I get, as I happen to know that Father Christmas is bringing it for me!
