Made from the Japanese pattern book “Pattern Magic” by Tomoko Nakamichi; this is the design on page 10, and my second version of this dress. Made from a thin, slightly nubbly, charcoal-marle polyester/wool suiting fabric, and with a 120cm bootlace for a cord

love the dress, love your styling – the skinny black skirt and hot pink tights make the dress pop, and I like the extra flare on one side. I also think that I could wear a version like this to work… hmmm….
