Around the World in 80 Dresses: Dresses From Around the Blogosphere

Hi there! In a quest to provide ongoing inspiration for dress refashions, we thought we'd round up a couple refashion projects from around the blogosphere.

First up, our very own Erica Louise:


Check out the full story, including how-to pictures, here. We love her eye for a fabulous print and the clever asymmetrical detailing on the shoulder. Click over for more inspiration!

Next up is the fabulously talented Kathleen of Grosgrain Fabulous. She's taken the classic "convert an oversized dress into a fresh frock" to a whole new level. The silhouette, sleeves, and waist tie give this a deliciously retro yet modern look - we couldn't believe she eked it all out from a single thrifted dress! Stunning.


Finally, one of our favorite refashionistas of all time - Antoinette. Her frock, made from upcycled black jeans, is truly one of a kind. Check out that collar!


The exposed zipper is a great detail, and her incorporation of the pockets is genius! Perfect for those of you headed into fall weather.


Got a favorite dress refashion project that we should showcase? Leave a comment and let us know!
