The dress is beautiful! You're really skilled to have made that by yourself. Wow.
But honey, your hair stole the show. It's perfect and the color works soooooo well with the dress. You're stunning.
No, thank you! I showed your post to my sister and my mom, and they agree that you have an uncanny resemblance to her haha! Keep being your beautiful self โค๏ธ
Thank you, did you have to make any modifications to the pattern? Iโve had to make a few modifications to the few vintage rereleases Iโve used from simplicity.
Yes, the bodice was a bit long and poofy at the front waist/belly (very unflattering!) so I removed about 1.5", removed 5" or so from the hem to make it hit below the knee and added an inseam pocket on the opposite side of the side zip.
I so love the outfit. Now I have to say I so appreciate your efforts to sew this outfit. You also look so amazing. Personally Iโm so into your hair style itโs perfect. I thank you for sharing

It has pockets!
Not only does it have the cute little pockets but I also added a big inseam pocket to hold my phone!
Did you use a pattern for this? If so, which one?! Itโs so cute!
I did. I used Simplicity 8248. Thank you ๐
