I wanted to copy this dress I saw in Lucky magazine in a fabric cooler than denim, so I chose red linen. I drafted it myself and it was super easy to draft and make. The ties are self-lined and double-knotted over the shoulders. The front pieces have one dart each. It has a waist band and an eight gore skirt. More pictures and my inspiration picture on my blog
