I finally finished my dress and had a sunny day to take some pictures.
This is made from pattern Vogue Vintage 8789. It was very easy to make, I bought a two layer petticoat for underneath and wow am I pleased with it. I used very soft cotton in blue floral and it really does work well with the dress.
Here is a close up shot of the button detail on the shoulders.
Now to go to a tea party….

That is super cute– I really want a petticoat so I can wear fluffy dresses like that!
It looks like you did a great job on the shoulder detail! It also looks so perfect with the petticoat, awesome length.
I had considered making this dress for a (now called-off) wedding I was to attend in September. Your creation may have just inspired me to get started on that
Thanks!
Thank you, It is a great summer dress and can be worn to some many types of functions.
It’s a beauty!
Great dress!
What a wonderful shoulder detail. The dress turned out great!
