Black and Red Swing Dress

A black and red 50′s inspired swing dress – it has a circle skirt and and elasticated back. It was simple and a lot of fun to make and I’m excited to swing dance in it this Saturday! It’s not hemmed yet – I’m still deciding whether or not I want it much shorter. It’s part of my new years resolution to sew 52 garments in 52 weeks.

Nice dress! Personally I like it at that length, I think it looks elegant on you.
