I made this dress for my soon-to-be-sister-in-law, Laura. She's got a bunch of weddings to go to this summer (don't we all?) and needed a fun little cocktail dress. She found something she liked online and I put my own little spin on it, and I think it came out fantastic!
But let me tell you, this dress was a big fat challenge. I've actually been working on it off and on for the last few weeks - one of those projects that you need to just step away from before you set a match to it (like the wedding dress!). I replaced the top chiffon piece twice because I just wasn't happy with how it as turning out, and edging it with bias tape was a real pain in the tush, but I think all the hard work paid off - it looks pretty darn good. What do you think?
Have a great day,
Cat
Hey Cat! This is the cutest dress ever! Can you make me one? :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like it came straight from anthropologie, but cuter. Did you make the pattern up yourself?
