I saw this collar on another dress, was inspired by it and the dress evolved from there. I haven’t committed to the buttons yet.
Brown Cotton/Lycra blend
Me! and my dress form. I didn’t use a pattern.

I love the color and the button detail. Both really give it a steampunk rusty vibe. Tres chic.

I agree with CarotteSauvage…. add in some 1940’s sex appeal and voila’ there is your dress! The colour is so beyond delicious! Utterly timeless, I would wear your dress until it was thread-bare. Are you taking orders for it?

This is absolutly gorgeous. I like the aesthetic of it, bauhaus, Russian constructivist

Beautiful dress. I also vote for the buttons. Finishes it off nicely.

I love the drape! I think you have captured a very hard concept and done really well! Beautiful dress!

I absolutely LOVE this. You should definitely put the buttons on. I think they totally make the dress!!
