For my birthday I had a Dead Celebrities Party. I didn’t have a lot of time to make my costume this year so I went with something simple but a favourite. I made Marilyn Monroes pink Dress from Diamonds Are a Girls Best Friend in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes Diamonds.
I started and finished it in one day and I am very pleased with how it turned out. I would have like to have made an exact replica but I didn’t have enough time to draft a whole new pattern for it so I used one I made last year with a few little tweaks.
You can check out more about it on my blog.
