I made the Anda dress but I made a v-neck and dropped the elastic waist a bit. The fabric store in my town is woefully inadequate so I had to settle for a black knit rather than the cornflower blue silk that I had envisioned…and it sort of sounds like my name! (Mir-anda)

Very cute. I have been wondering if a v neck would work with Anda. I thought maybe it would fall off the shoulder. Thanks for trying it. I think I will too. Nice picture too.

I like your version of the anda – the v-neck looks really great on you! And the “plain black” is quite versatile, I think. Nice work.
