Couture: 60s Polka Dot
21Jul11

An indulgent moment with another 60s-inspired dress. I made the pattern and sewed it by hand.
I like simply elegant dresses: Slight boat neck; two sets of darts in front and back; a strong macha green polka dot silk print.
Originally I planned to add draping over the dress in homage to 60s (and so I could learn the art of draping).
Having finished the draping, however, I decided to leave the dress “bare”.
To give the 60s a contemporary touch, I am wearing a varnished belt.

can you make me one please?!
Chloe, glad you like the dress!!
Shall I have a couture line on the side, to share my indulgent treats?
Maybe I could sew one or two dresses to keep my sewing going
