Well I was hit by a sudden and urgent case of sewing ADD, and decided to start and nearly finish a completely different sewing project. It happens.
I was really inspired by this great printed cotton I picked up at a garage sale last week, and It was screaming out to me to be a cute resort-style laid-back halter dress.
Better pictures coming soon (I keep promising that, but I mean it!)
The dress was drafted by myself. The midriff section is quite heavily interfaced and has a few spiral steel bones, so it can be worn with or without a bra, which is quite exciting for me. In the picture I'm wearing it over my vintage longline bra, but you can see a little of it peaking out, which isn't very 1950s. I think this style really needs a strapless bra.
