dress - self made
heels - peacocks
this is my birthday party dress
..
for months i knew exactly
how i wanted my birthday party dress to look like:
bright red one
with low cut drape back
and pencil skirt
..
then i failed to find the right red fabric
..
so
if you wonder why i look like a flight attendant
here is your answer
..
if you wonder what my brooch is
it's half peeled banana
..
if you wonder was i drunk
while sewing the dress
and therefore screwed up the print matching
and used so wrongly colored zipper
answer is: no.
i was creative

the back is wonderful! i love the low cut and the chunky zipper.
ReplyDeletethank you.. would be better with metal zipper, but i couldn't find one in right size :(
DeleteI like the mismatched print! I think it looks cool!
ReplyDeletethank you.. i actually wish it's a bit more mismatched.. well, might give it another try
DeleteSo pretty! It looks so demure from the front, but then the back is so daring! I've been neglecting sewing because I've been teaching myself to spin wool, but seeing your projects always inspires me. Too many crafts not enough time! D:
ReplyDelete:) thank you.. spinning wool sounds fun.. my grandma is a champ in it, i have to ask her to teach me how to do it :)
DeleteI love this! The print really makes the draping stand out and the zip is fantastic x
ReplyDeleteI just love the colours in this plaid - you always pick such gorgeous colour combinations! The low back is lovely too - it really makes it extra special.
ReplyDeletethank you.. i really love these colors together, might get more of this fabric to make some pants or something
DeleteI LOVE the off-kilter plaid. I knew it was intentional right away. Very, very cool.
ReplyDeletethanks, lovely lady :)
DeleteLove it, Mokosha! Specially the back with the zipper. And I like plaid so much...
ReplyDeletethanks, you wonderwoman :)

DeleteI love it! In my opinion, you can't go wrong with tartan :-) Happy birthday!!!
ReplyDeletethank you, debi.. and, sure, one can't go wrong with tartan - especially you (still dreaming of your fabulous shoes)

DeleteI think you did a great job with the dress. The imperfections are not easily noticeable. Plus it just gives it more character:) Love the print too.
ReplyDeletethe zipper is PERFECT. have you partied in this yet?
ReplyDeletei need your address, birthday sis...if indeed you're staying put for a bit...
yup, sister oona, these are after party photos :) you know me, i always do things at the last moment (dress was finished some 45 minutes before the guests arrived)..
ReplyDeleteconsider the address thingie done, just give me a couple of days to arrange some things, and you have it (but, of course, i'm going to need your address too)
Was this drafted from a pattern??? I neeeeeeed this in my closet!
