Vintage Dress and Bolero for Gene

 




















This is another commission outfit for Gene Marshall done from a picture of a vintage sewing pattern from the 50's.  The client chose this vintage cotton voile from Frenchfashions.net.  I'll admit to having some initial misgivings about the scale of this fabric but in the end it worked out well.  Instead of doing the original jacket which covered up the bodice of the dress, a bolero was chosen instead.  The dress and jacket are both completely lined in green silk habotai.
