Description

Made for a holiday party in 2008. I love the cut of the dress, the open neckline with dramatic folded collar. I may make another one with long sleeves some day.

Very Easy Vogue pattern V8408

Material Notes

Red and white print.

    Thanks for all the postiive feedback! Super-easy to make this dress. Some of the ideas about a faux fur or contrast collar could be quite fun!

    (I also just looked at the pictures again and want to note that I do own an iron…really should have pressed the skirt before taking photographs.)

    The collar is fantastic! I might knock it off, the dress is super cute.

    Great dress! Love the dramatic collar! I would love to see a version with a collar out of faux fur (preferably in a silvery grey) and the bodice out of teal velvet. Add a vintage brooch to the collar as well…
