I really wanted to try making a circle dress! I used this abstract camouflage print for the skirt, and a solid green knit for the top. I made the top with an all-in-one facing, so it would be a really soft and clean finish. I also found some buttons that matched the skirt fabric really well, so I added them down the front.
I think it turned out to be a really fun weekend dress. And, it twirls really well! :)
