B5491




One of my college buddies, Phil, married the sweetest girl (Meg, not pictured, sorry!) two weeks ago in a gorgeous outdoor ceremony. I made this dress in July, specifically for the wedding and have been meaning to get a picture of it since. This is the best picture showcasing the dress from the event, as unfortunately, I still have not photographed it on its own.

This pattern was a breeze. I cut a size 8 - one larger than normal - since I used a woven instead of the recommended knit. I also fully lined the dress as the pattern only called for a partial lining of the bodice and I'm not a fan of wearing a slip. Other than that, I didn't make any alterations. This dress went together like a dream. I don't know that I'll make it again, but if I do it will probably be the longer version.
