Made from a retro 1940’s Butterick pattern – didn’t come out great at first try… need to add some darts on either side of the bust (I cheated with pins in the pic!)…
Very light weight satin, self lined

Hello Stacey, I do like this dress, and the color is great for you. I’ve noticed that you have that rare talent of choosing the right colors for your skin tone. Wish I did. The DH has to choose any colors, except neutrals for me. Cordially, Nehmah PS I wonder if you would consider a How-to for the bust adjustment on this pattern? Please? Pretty please? Nehmah
