Vintage Vibe

Next on the #sewingrota
A flippy, floaty Summer dress.
With this pattern,

Which I have made before

 This time we went with the mini view.

The fabric is the same as her shorts.
A flowy, soft crepe-like stuff.

I sewed two bias strips for the drawstring tie, a look I have seen popping up in trendy boutiques.
I took up quite a deep hem for better fall and even took the time to hand sew it.
The fabric was surprisingly hard to pierce, thank you Sarvi for my posh sewing needles.

I love it on her!

Elsa is small busted enough not to need a bra but that is not going to happen.
Apparently nipples are disgusting.
Visible underwear however is almost de rigueur for teens.

I don't mind one way or the other.
It has already had an airing and was complimented on in her favourite boutique.
I will take that as a success.

~Elsa's Verdict~
It makes me look like a size 4 (tiny) I think the back looks very  attractive and I am glad we finally used the fabric.

Thank you for reading!
