my favourite dresses #1.


a duck print? yes. i know its pretty strange, but this 1950's cotton daydress is one of my treasured ones. it has full skirt, fitted waist, and a row of cute little buttons down the front. print aside, its a simple and flattering pattern thats really versatile, i think. does anyone else like it? (i'm making up patterns soon, so input will be super appreciated.)

  5. Yes, thats a lovely and flattering pattern. Does it have a zip in the back? Sometimes that helps with different shapes and sizes and just kinda tailors the dress for girls who are a bit bigger in proportion, like myself :)
