2012 Christmas Party Dress 1

Not exactly what I said I was going to do, but I figured this poplin from IKEA would make a lovely dress for the more casual Christmas gatherings in the Perth sunshine. Its the bodice from Style 1157, a vintage pattern from the 70s, plus a simple slightly gathered skirt.



The openings are faced. I need to sort out that line to make it less obvious!
And there is a zip in the side to get it on and off, just from about 2 inches below the arm hole to 2 inches below the waist.


The last few days have been stormy, so it needs a bit of extra warmth.

A party dress you can play with the dog in :D
