I just love nautical things! I love it even more when it’s in a non-traditional color scheme.
Tada! I love wearing coral! So fun!
I used Simplicity 2801 c. 1949 with a combo of the cuff from view 1 and the pockets from view 2. (Because what dress can’t be improved with pockets?)
Initially, I had planned on a solid dress with no trim but it was just too much coral. So out came the nautical braid and a nice white belt to break up the dress a bit.
It was a lot of work getting the trim to be straight and even but it was so worth it! More photos here.
I’m obsessed with coral this season. 😀 The white piping details are really a fantastic addition to this dress. They make it extra special.
Wow! You did an amazing job! I love the color. The whole dress really flatters you!
This is beautiful!
Oh law, that is perfection.
The sleeves! You did a fabulous job, as usual. It would have been so easy to make this in navy but the coral was inspired.
The trim you chose is perfect, and I love nautical touches! Super cute!
Very, very lovely.
This is lovely!
