Description

Tried to make a cocktail dress from some stretch aubergine satin and purple lace. First attempt at anything ‘fancy’..cant decide if im pleased or not. Quite like the idea but the satin wrinkled and bulges where the back seam is, pleats also didn’t iron well. I like it but worried if i wore it out it looks a bit cheap and like i slept in it as creases easily! hmm not sure…
Made the pattern myself this time yay so thats a plus

Material Notes

Aubergine stretch satin Purple lace
