Description
I was making this dress prior to Halloween and it reminded me Minnie Mouse so I decided to be Minnie Mouse for Halloween. After many trials and errors I finally finished this piece.
This dress was inspired by this blouse http://wkdesigner.wordpress.com/2008/10/21/drapey-blouson/. Although the instructions to draft the pattern for this blouse were very incorrect and took a lot of editing to get to the dress above.
Material Notes
Red Chiffon overlay with Black/White Polka dot knit underlay

I started off with these directions to draft your own pattern (http://wkdesigner.wordpress.com/2008/10/21/drapey-blouson/). The website is awesome but there were a lot of errors in the direction and a lot of editing was necessary in order to get the dress above.
