Description

A very casual dress, made from an old pattern. Had to adjust the pattern a bit, in order to make the dress fit me better. Bought the pattern on ebay, it's from a French fashion magazine dated 1967.

Materials

Dress: rusty coloured cord Lining: a darker coloured cotton

Credits

"Femme D'Aujourd'Hui No. 1146", 19th of April 1967.
