This was inspired by lots of 50s style dresses i've seen around recently, and to me looks like something out of a fairytale or something you should wear to 'afternoon tea'! The top is lined for modesty and comfort, and i really like the wide halterneck straps. I based the pattern on a 50s style dress i've had for a while, but made the skirt longer and the sizing overall a bit bigger (a bit too big to be honest, it's come out a couple of sizes too big as i was expecting the shirring on the back to pull it in more!)
Still, i do like it, and will look out for bolder fabric to make more in the same design!
