I changed the basic silhouette of this dress. It is now a 50s style swing dress. The skirt is circular with two rows of trim and is longer. There is a wide fitted inset waist which goes high in the front. There are darts in the front and back of the bodice for shape (the bodice is fitted now). The collar now goes over to the side. There are four buttons on the waist. The waist has seams that follow the lines of the buttons and darts. There is a white inset panel at the bust with blue trim. Side zip. I added white laces in the back to adjust the fit. |
