Here is one more dress I made from a skirt, this time a pleated one. As on the first skirt dress I made, I’ve used JJ1’s pattern for the bodice part, the only difference is I made it much shorter. For the sleeves I used a pattern of one dress from a japanese "Stylish dress book“. The collar was made by my grandma, she did it when I was going to elementary school so its over 20 years old! Back then every girl had to wear the same uniforms and the only thing that could be different was the collars and handcuffs. This collar makes me love this dress even more.

I love the collar! This is a great way to up-cycle crocheted old school uniform collars! I think I might still have some stacked away somewhere back in Lithuania. Well-done.
