I finished it! The only thing i have to do is adjust the waiststay, made it a little tighter than the dress, so now the dress sticks out a little at the back when I close the waist-stay.
I’ll have another WIP post on this dress, or I guess it’s more of an “inner construction post”, because this is the first dress I made that’s nice on the inside too :) Just couldn’t wait to post pictures, so that’s why this one’s first :)
I want one too, i want one tooo!!! :D
Still have the Schnittmuster if you want a copy ;)
Hello there! Just popped over from Burdastyle and so glad I did! Such a pretty dress and thank you so much for documenting the process. I am already inspired and will be back to get your hot tips!
It’s so great to hear I inspired someone :) And thanks for linking me on your blog! I added you to my bloglovin’ ;)
it is so beutifull, I make similar dress for my friend , floral print but smolle floral print!
Wow! This is gorgeous! Great work, and thanks for showing us all the details on the inside – good to see. I love your blog. You take amazing photos!
Wow, thank you :) I love your blog! Your Betty Draper Jacket with the scallops is so great, it inspired me to make a similar one for fall!
That is a beautiful dress. I love your shoes, too. Where can I get a pair?
Thank you! I got them on asos.com, but it was a year ago so I don’t think they have them anymore, sorry :(
Wow, you are such a talented stitcher! I can’t believe you drafted this dress yourself, it’s adorable! And thanks so much for sharing such a detailed account…very helpful!
thank you :) glad I could help! I love looking at the inside of other peoples dresses too so I thought I’d take some pictures! (plus it motivated me to make the inside look nice)
Yes you are a talented designer for sure! And you are also a great model for your designs. I will have to check out that post you referenced. It’s a couture dress. I have yet to try a waist stay.
Thank you :) Waist-stays are great! Not only do they act as a belt, but the also take the strain off of the zipper (so I don’t have to feel nervous about not holding in my stomach when I sit :)). And they’re so easy to put in.
It looks absolutely wonderful, I love the fabric you’ve chosen! x
Thank you!
Wow, this is adorable! Great job! I loved your construction posts!
Thank you :)
It’s drop dead gorgeous! I love the fabric – sheesh! I could die in fabric that beautiful. It’s just the ticket for you too. So elegant and feminine with your beautiful hair and lovely shoes – I’m a shoe freak! I really like how you’ve made the skirt a bit shorter than a typical vintage fashion – gives it a bit of an update while still maintaining and vintage aesthetic. The straps and princess seams are beautiful too, just in the right spot. Love it! xoxo, Sunni
Wait, maybe not princess seams? Maybe a dart? Anyhow, just perfect!
Thank you! Yeah, the shorter skirt looks better on me than really long skirts (I’m short so those only look good on me with high heels) :)
