1950s inspired garden party dress

It's a little ironic that I am sharing these dresses with you today while it's snowing outside my window. Oh well, at least they will take your thoughts to an already warmer place. I really hope Spring is not too far around the corner so I can wear them out to play.
I used the same pattern as I used for this dress I made last year.
Fitted bodice with boatneck front and low cut back and full gathered skirt.
I made it in cream, green and red and of course they are available to purchase in my shop in all three colours and various sizes.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

I hope you like them.

  3. These are both really pretty! I love the low back, the print, and the ruffles peeking out of the bottom. They fit you so well, too!

    1. Thank you. It's actually 3 :-) dresses. The green is quite a light green though.
      I wish I had a better matching petticoat but this was the best I had to pair with it.
