I love this dress and I finally got around to making my own version of it with some grey linen fabric. It has a V-neck in the front and then a deeper V in the back. I’m thinking about making the sleeves shorter, but I’m not sure. I also want to take some length off my hair, but I’m not sure about that either. One thing I am sure of is that I love sewing my own clothes. 🙂 Also, if I get tired of this style, I can make the dress into a top and use the rest of the fabric to sew something for the girls. I’m all about re-purposing things I’ve sewn in the past and turning them into something else.
on me: dress, home sewn (similar here, just sew shorter sleeves). round basket, french baskets (tassel DIY here). shoes, gap (similar here).
Love it – it’s gorgeous!!
Thank you! 🙂
So beautiful! I was wondering where you usually buy your fabric? It’s so hard to find simple, pretty linen fabric!
Are you local in SoCal? There’s a place called M&L Fabric in Buena Park that has a great selection.
nice post
I want that basket so much but shipping to England is so expensive. And, weirdly, I can’t find anything similar here. Will just have to live vicariously through you!
Really?! I think most of them come from England or France! This one from the the UK: https://www.etsy.com/listing/251616514/florence-basket?ref=shop_home_active_7 Hope this helps!
I love your basket and followed the link to the store. Do you mind if I ask if you had to pay customs fees and how that worked, if you did? I live in the US too, but on the east coast. Thanks so much!
No, I didn’t have to pay any custom fees or taxes. It should get to you sooner since you’re east coast.
