Description

Vintage 50’s pattern i found in a second hand store. I made the skirt slightly shorter than the pattern to give it a modern look.
I’m in love with this dress and cant wait to wear it out.
Created a matching clutch and hair piece to go with it.

Material Notes

I just love the colours here...the outer layer on the skirt has cute little poka dots on it.
