Description
Raise the curtain for our short little summer number. Whatever event it may be that you are trying to find the perfect dress for, this one will do! Unless too cute is off limits. Find either a great chiffon and satin match or something contrasting to bring out the mix of different fabrics. With its chiffon top this dress may not be something for the novice yet, but there is always the option of replacing it with a fabric with a bit more body. Much fun and make sure to share which event you took your Sibylle to.
Material Notes
Chiffon, raw silk

What a great dress pattern to use recycled fabrics in, an old pin striped men’s shirt, a bed sheet with an interesting pattern. The options are endless.

Hey Anek,
I am so curious what you will make out of the upper skirt! maybe just a strapless top instead? Or the chiffon part not quite as full?

I bought it the instant i was this! the day before I bought a fabric which seems to be perfect for this design. I’ll probably change the upperskirt though, it’s a bit too fairy-esque.

I saw this on facebook the other day. I love the mix of fabrics, and how the back of the dress looks. Very creative!

Wow, that looks like a little fairy dress! Very inventive and I like the fact that you could use lots of different fabrics in one piece.
