This is the manifestation of all my dress dreams. It has an open back, box-pleated skirt, pockets, and love in every stitch! Sewing with Liberty of London fabric gives new meaning to the saying “Give me Liberty or give me death”
Check it out on my blog: Needles, Thread and Love
I made this dress out of the most incredibly luxurious Liberty of London fabric. The yoke and insert in the skirt are made out of silk chiffon.

Terrific mix of fabrics! The keyhole in the back takes in from edgy to daring!

Are there skyscrapers on the fabric…? Probably not, but it looks like they are! :) Great dress.

I think this dress truly embodies all I love in one dress. You forgot to mention the amazing sheer top… and sheer stripe in the lovely skirt. I want it. I want it. I really want it.

Wow – it’s stunning!
It reminds me of this Louis Vuitton dress I’ve been drooling over for months.
