Description

This is a new design I just finished, and I love it. This dress is great because it can be worn now, but will also be great during the fall, because the material is fairly thick. I now the pictures make it hard to see the colors very well. The dress is navy blue, and the sash and buttons have a fabric with pink, blue, green and gray stripes.

I gave it a giant split cowl neck, and added giant vintage buttons that I removed the fabric from and covered with my own fabric to match the sash.

    I love this dress, it is a beautiful design, brilliant choices of fabric and buttons, and really well made. I would buy this dress if I saw it in a shop.

    I really like that neckline. I’m a big fan of cowl necks and might try out this version myself after seeing how flattering it is. I also like how you shaped the dress with gathers at front and back.

    I loooove the dress!!I like everything about it! Especially the cowl – would love to make something like this for myself :)

    The buttons and the belt are a great detail and you’ve made excellent colour choice (and combination)!
