The dress came out very nicely - it is more visible, fortunately, in the detail pix you've provided. Have you considered the bias styles from the '30s - they should work very well for your slender figure - i'm becoming a fan because of your obvious love of vinatge patterns ;-}.

Oh Mackensie, I just adore this dress! You did an outstandiing job. This is indeed my most favorite period dress. There was a time in the middle 70's when this is all I would wear. I lived outdise of PGH PA at the time and would shop the thrift stores to find dresses and shoes to match. Great workmanship and an excellent review! ~Connie ps You should enter this in the Vintage Contest!!!

Wow, my second thought (after "Great dress!") was, "Holy moly, that's a lotta buttons!!!" You are far more patient than I. Beautiful dress. You really know how to bring the vintage looks up to current appeal!

The princess seamed dresses of the forties are my favorites as well. Yours is the epitome of that flattering style. The fabric you selected is perfect. Well done!

Lovely dress. Your fabric works well with the style.

I agree that the shirtdress is a fabulous style for your slim body type, and you've developed quite a Winner with this beautiful vintage dress. The fabric is perfect, your construction is superb, and the final look is so charming - a little bit vintage, a little bit modern. Just a smashing look for you. Lovely, Lily

Wow! Very authentic fabric choice and flattering cut! I, too, had several styles like this in the 70's from thrift stores. The style is timeless. Super job!

As your jacket, this is a very cute piece, that would be very easy to wear in lots of circumstances. And the fabric is great with this pattern.
