Unfortunately I didn't get as many/as good of pictures of it as I wanted to - especially of the back. I added a ruffle down each side of the zipper, which had the double benefit of looking pretty awesome and hiding the zipper a little more! Here's a crappy little picture of it:
I did the dress in a cotton watercolor print with a hot pink satin for top lining. I used the same lining fabric to make a one shouldered bow. I've been loving all the one shouldered designs that are so popular now, and that seemed like a good way to easily incorporate the effect!!
The other modification I made to the dress was that I didn't include the sleeves - easy change :)
I have a bachlorette party coming up in a month or so, and I'm thinking of using this same pattern to make a strapless or one-shouldered red dress with big rosettes on it or something, kind of like one of these:
What do you think??

Love love love the one shoulder pink dress. If you make this, it would be incredible if you shared a tutorial!
ReplyDeleteI love the dress and the other dresses you had pictured. If you do a tutorial PLEASE let me know!!! My email is: momofsami5@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteThe tropical print and hot-pink lining work so well together, and I love the idea of using the same pattern for a future red dress. The ruffles and one-shoulder bow are great details too. When modifying patterns like this, considering your body proportions can help with the overall fit, and a body type calc can be a useful starting point when choosing different silhouettes.
