Rhoda K said... Love your dress - great job. Look forward to photos of you modeling the dress. 8/29/11 2:10 PM
ArtAttack said... Fabulous! yes, it is screaming for some red Manolo's! You are so right about the front crossover...I'm not comfortable wearing mine for that reason and the tack down looks tacked down. You look incredible in yours! 8/29/11 2:55 PM
Nan Kay said... Great dress. 8/29/11 5:42 PM
JenniferMM said... Great dress! The fit looks perfect and I love the details and print! I have the 1183 version in my queue and will likely sew the bodice closed as well. Truthfully, I don't know why the instructions don't say to. Even Kay Unger's version (which retained for over $300 btw!) had that sewn down. 8/29/11 6:20 PM

jenleeC said... Well your first designer Vogue looks fantastic! Congratulations! I was extra pleased to see this review because not only do I have this pattern but I think you might be close to my body double (just 20 years younger, sigh)!! 8/29/11 8:49 PM
ginnie.wise said... Go for it, jenleeC! I looked at some of your photos, and I think you're right. Probably not about the 20 years part, though. I have a babyface. Don't let it fool you. ;) 8/29/11 10:16 PM
