Formal Dress To Pin-Up Shirt

My mom gave me this formal polyester size 8 Cache dress. It doesn't fit me and it isn't really my style so I decided to make it into a top.

Here it is in all it's glory! 

I cut it in half and took the sides in about an inch and then hemmed it up. Now it looks like this:

You can see pictures of the entire process and a better description on my blog post here.

I also have the exact same dress in red and I did the same thing with that dress but I made the top a little bit longer. I will post that tomorrow.
