Description

I used Vintage Vogue reprint 8728 for this dress. The fabric is a polyester, and was suprisingly well behaved! I have a little obsession with everything navy blue and nautical (especially when paired with red) so this fabric really called out to me. My pattern review may be found on my blog here
