I had an awards dinner to go to recently with a dress code of 'black tie preferred' so decided to make a new dress. I had some silver lace in my stash that I was really keen to use, so I decided to make a version of Vintage Vogue V8729.
I thought the skirt might be a little too full blown ball gown for the evening so I elimated it & turned the bodice into a pencil dress.
I still have plans to make the skirt from Vogue V8729 but to make it as a seperate piece so that the dress is a little more versatile.For more info & pictures check out my blog, Orchids in May.
