Since I didn’t had the time to make something new for New Years eve this year I will show you the dress I made and wore last year instead.
Early on I knew I wanted to make a dress to wear to the New Years party, so as usual I searced the internet for inspiration. I found this dress, and figured I make somwthing simular.
I bought a turqouise and black shimery fabric, and som black lace in my local fabric store and got to work drafting a pattern.
Deciding on a few changes from the original I made a sleeveless dress with a heart-shape in the front, and a flaring wide skirt.
In the back there is a visible silver zipper.
The bust era are interlined and boned with several pieces of rigeline and made to fit snuggly to the body.
A also made a sepearte lace shirt with long sleeves and a opening in the neck.
The neck are edged with bias-tape and closes with a button.
And the look togheter, and with a black belt added.
Then I made my sister take som photos of me out in the snow.
I really like this dress and thought about wearing it this year too, but decided not to since the company would be the same.
