Description

Ankle length dress with over-sized turtle neck that acts like a cowl. The model was short, so I used a running stitch from the ankle to the fullest part of the hip to draw the dress up for the shoot.

$2 a yard Value fabric from Jo-Ann’s

    I think a dress very nice and easy to carry, I think it must have been terrible to work with a tissue so fall and spring …. (Both hate me) Great job!

    Cool dress. looks great on your model. I love the gathering at the sides. It makes the butt looks great. Will have to try that sometime.

    I really like the last photo of the side shot, the gather stitch looks great, I love how it creates drapes at the back of the knee, an amazing transformation of $2 fabric :)
