1950's dream dress - Bernina 3 Series

Description
This is a red polka dot 1950’s style dress. It has a circle skirt and the top is converted from a self made bustier pattern. I added centre front ruching and halter neck straps. The petticoat is actually from Vivien of Holloway so can’t take credit for that! Ideal for eating ice-cream Sundaes and walking hand in hand down the promenade.
Material Notes
Red polka dot cotton

Very classic! Good work on the tulle! It looks like you will have a great deal of fun in this outfit, and look so sweet while you are at it!

This is so lovely! The red polka dot and pink ruffle combo is very effective!
