you translated this from pattern to dress so beautifully! the dress is gorgeous! love the fabric pick.
Very pretty! I'm going to have to start rethinking patterns from the 60s and 70s!
That is soo pretty and flattering to your figure. Well done.
classic, but still playful…what a great dress!

Oh I like what you did with that dress. Looks lovely on you.
Great pattern! love your interpretation… very pretty!
My mother once made the shorter view of that dress, in a floral crepe. I always thought that it was a particularly flattering pattern.
I think that your version is lovely!
Lovely!! Isn't lavender just the sweetest and softest of colours? I need to add 'make a lavender dress' to my list of projects. 🙂
This looks wonderful on you. You managed to make a classicly '70s dress appear more '30s vintage. Excellent job!
