In the fabric shop the floral print looked great, and I was willing to look past the fact that it was quite a boring thin cotton. But as the dress began to take shape I became increasingly worried because its an awful lot of floral.
This dress was a lot of firsts. First bodice lining. First sleeves. First gathered skirt.
Altogether I reasonably pleased with how it turned out, if a little disappointed with the fabric choice.
I will hopefully be posting a picture of me actually wearing it soon.
Nice! What pattern did you use? I think if you wear it with boots, black tights, and a belt (and maybe a black scarf?) the floral will make a great contrast to the tougher accessories.
