MarshaG. said... Your version of this dress is my absolute favorite! The use of two coordinating prints really makes the dress. I like your version enough to want one for myself, and I'm not normally one to make the more loosely fitted garments. Thanks for your review! 6/19/12 6:57 PM

Renata said... Looks like a perfect humid summer dress. I love the fabric, I love the dress. 6/19/12 7:53 PM
FreyaStark said... Lovely! The way you've worked your inspirations into the finished dress is clever, and you've made the dress look nicer and more appealing than the envelope illustration. 6/19/12 8:32 PM
Claverie said... Thanks for doing this review. I, too, much prefer cotton and wondered just how well it would perform in this pattern. Your dress is absolutely something to study. I like your take on it. Thanks for the pointers, too. 6/19/12 8:46 PM

JillyBe said... This pattern is winging its way to me, and I'll definitely refer to your very helpful review when I'm ready to sew it :) Love your print fabrics, and that you were so successful at doing it in a woven. Great job! 6/19/12 10:24 PM

Fran G said... Very charming version of this dress! You have a wonderful "eye" for fabric selection. I especially appreciate your detailed instructions regarding the shirring section of this dress. Thanks! 6/20/12 7:13 AM

Karine said... Very helpful review - thank you!!! I love your dress - your choice of fabric seems perfect for the style - both the coordinating prints and the woven cotton. I especially like the length - it is much more flattering. 6/20/12 8:23 AM

threaddy said... How did you get the shoes to match? The dress is absolutely Escadaesque. The combination of fabrics came off perfectly. I am most impressed 6/21/12 10:01 PM
