I spent the last few days making some new patterns and this one was inspired by a vintage wing collar blouse that I decided to turn into a dress. (See pic at the end.) I'm a big fan of Japanese cottons so I used a cotton poplin for this dress with a lightweight cotton yoke. The collar is actually shawl construction in the back, meaning it pivots at the shoulder/neckline point. It's very fiddly to do so I think if I do this one again, I'll simplify the construction of the yoke. The dress is fully lined in nude silk/cotton and closes with snaps in the back. The neckline is adorned with a "silk" flower, and the matching belt is removable and closes with a snap in the back. I made up a little hat for her just because I think every outfit needs accessories.
Dress and hat are available for $85.00 plus $6.00 shipping to US.
I should note that this dress fits Integrity Genes perfectly but the sleeves are a little tight on the Ashton Drakes.
