Deadstock Olive Fabric...

I was given this nice fabric recently and decided to make a dress...behold!

















It's a combination of the Colette "Sencha" blouse and my own drafted skirt pattern.



With a tie neck collar. And a zip.


















And the finished product...I'll post a few more later.



Ta da!

  1. You always have the cleanest lines, and work so well with collars! (I always give up and just do a lazy peter pan collar). The color and design go perfectly together!

    Oh and love the new header, I just loved it when The Satorialist posted vintage photos, but this, and the gal smoking and wearing pants were my faves ;)
