I was looking for a perfect bodice for this dress for a long time. Finally I found one (Vogue 8594). The skirt is taken from another pattern. I also added a dark green ribbon on the hem, to make the dress more lively.

I find that dress simply gorgeous, that dark green ribbon is a nice twist. The color suits you very well. Really lovely.

Hi, thanks for your nice comment. I actually combined 2 different patterns for this dress. Bodice is based on Vogue V8594 and skirt bit on McCalls M6011. The dress has also a lining, which I extended at the bottom to get the “layers”.

It’s a wonderful dress, and fits you beautifully. You’re right, the ribbon takes it to a new level.
