Paris75008 said... Very cute. I just downloaded the pattern from Burda. Kate Spade has a dress that looks an awful lot like this and its priced at over $300 6/13/10 8:38 AM
pfaffkj said... Too cute! Adore the ruffle. And your red shoes. I'm off to download the pattern for this dress. . . . 6/13/10 8:50 AM
Linda G said... cute, cute, cute....I am too old to wear sleeveless except under a jacket but this dress might work for that. Did you download the pattern and tape it togehter...how do you feel about that project? Is it more time consuming than tracing a Burda pattern? 6/13/10 10:02 AM
JuneHawk said... Thanks everyone!
Linda, I did download the pattern and taped it together. I normally hate doing that but this one wasn't too bad. HOWEVER, it didn't include seam allowance so on top of taping, I had to trace the seam allowance. Those two combined are a pain in the butt! However, it was worth it, I love the dress. 6/13/10 10:41 AM
Secretsugar said... Absolutely adorable on you! I love the addition of the red accessories, too. 6/13/10 2:30 PM
Amanda S. said... LOVE it! Perfect fit and the color choices couldn't be cuter. Great job! 6/13/10 3:16 PM

Mushywear said... What a stand out dress. I love the color and the accent in red. So adorable. 6/14/10 11:28 PM
Karen6790 said... I downloaded this pattern not long after it came out - can you tell me why I've never gotten around to sewing it when it's so darned cute? I love yours - that's definitely a dress to put on when it's gray outside, instant springtime. And I love the ruffle. 6/14/10 11:30 PM
Lori V said... Wonderful dress, it is darling on you and the ruffle is perfect. 6/15/10 6:56 AM
MNBarb said... Love the blog photos. I'm sure all of the women in the '50s did a little housework in their heels and pearls. The dress is adorable on you. You chose the perfect fabric, belt, shoes, etc. Great job! 6/15/10 7:31 AM
