The cherry print wiggle dress

I have been making a lot of dresses featuring full gathered skirts or circle skirts lately and thought it was time for a different design. In one of my latest dress posts I was toying with the idea of using my sweet heart bodice in combination with a pencil skirt and so I did. I used a black cherry print cotton and the result is a cute little wiggle dress. 




had a good hair day, too




I think if I use this design again, I will make the skirt slightly longer. It's not too short but shorter than I usually wear. I also have this fabric in white waiting to be made up into something. Not sure what it's going to be yet. Any ideas?

    Ich fände noch eine Bluse im weißen Cherryprint für Jeans oder halt Hosen super.

  2. Super cute! I agree with making it a bit longer, I would say to the cut of the back of your knee to really give you that perfect 50s hour glass shape and have it taper in slightly :) Adore your hair!

    1. I know for, photobucket did this over night so I didn't realise this straight away. I fixed it this morning. Thank you for your comment. When I read it in my email notification, I realised what happened.
