Description

I bought this fabric 8 years ago to let my mom make a millennium-dress out of it. And now finally I had the courage to make something out of it myself. I wore it yesterday for the first time, while attending a couture-show, and I felt great. It’s very comfortable and yet a bit sexy.
I’ve fully lined the top, the skirt is just one layer. The “flower” is actually a broche, so I can chose to wear it somewhere else.

Material Notes

Stretch jersey-like with a shimmering detail. Looks very luxurious.

Myself. I Used a shirt I allready owned as guidance for the pattern.

    Really beautiful – sometimes it is good to wait for the right inspiration! :-) I love the flower-detail on the side.
