Dresses for Autumn

Posted in Miscellaneous, Sewing

I have another dress to add to my wardrobe, just in time for the weather to turn cold!

The author stands against a pale blue wall, photographed from neck to ankles. She wears a dark pink, high-collared, elastic-waisted midi dress with black boots. Her hands are tucked behind her back.

This is my tried-and-true Florence dress by Sew Over It, the third one I’ve made.

The author stands against a pale blue wall, photographed from neck to ankles. She wears the same dark pink dress with black boots, and her hands are clasped at her waist. The sleeves of the dress are three-quarter length.

I found these buttons in my stash; I think they’re real shell buttons, because they’re uneven thicknesses, and not perfectly flat.

Close-up of the bodice of the dress. The fabric has horizontal zigzags filled with curly shapes, and in-between zigzags are rose vines. The buttons on the bodice are pearlescent, and the collar is a high Nehru collar, with curved corners.

This fabric is delightful; it’s very lightweight and flowy, and extremely soft against the skin.

(This is not the best swish to show that off, I know!)

It’s not one of my homemade garments if it doesn’t have enormous pockets at this point!

I love the long sleeves of this pattern – they’re perfect for covering the skin in summer, and I can also layer these dresses in winter with leggings and a jacket. I also don’t have a lot of this dark pink/red in my wardrobe, so I’m looking forward to wearing it!

Anyways, see ya!
