I wore the Vogue dress yesterday to work. When I put it on to wear I liked how it looked without the sash, so I left it off. Because I made fitting adjustments to the shoulder area, I did not have some of the upper fullness I had with the first dress.
Here is a back view:
I might could use darts in the back, again though this version was not as full as the other one. Here is a side view:
I realized that the photo shots I took did not show the shoes I wore, which were white. I received some very nice compliments. I am now ready to move on to fall sewing. I am drafting a top pattern from the Lutterloh system and plan to patten fit another Vogue dress this holiday weekend. More later.
The dress looks great on you and like how you used the border print at the top.
ReplyDeleteYour dress turned out just lovely and looks very nice on you. It was a wise move not to wear the belt . . . it would have interfered with the pretty border print.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!!! I love the way you have used the border print.
ReplyDeleteYour dress turned out very nice, looks great on you!

ReplyDeleteLove the dress and the fabric
ReplyDeleteThis dress is lovely on you, and your use of the border print at the top is inspired. Bringing the interest up towards your face is so flattering. I must have a border print somewhere in my stash--you've inspired me---again!
ReplyDeleteI like how you turned the border upside down, letting the flowers fall at your feet. Very nice work.
ReplyDeletePretty, pretty! with flowers at your feet :)
ReplyDeleteThat's the prettiest color, and it fits you well.
ReplyDeleteYour dress looks wonderful on you! Love the fabric.
ReplyDeleteThis is indeed a beautiful dress on you. I love your placement of the border as well as the colors.
