Silk dress

Here is a photo of the dress. Never mind the doofus look on my face or the contorted pose. I never knew how hard it is to take photos of myself where I'm trying not to look silly.

And here is a photo of the zipper that lays flat, my pride and joy.

The pattern is McCalls 5579. I made view C.

Since I am rather self-conscious about my shoulders and the sleeves on this dress serve only to all attention to them, I usually throw on a cardigan. This tones down the sleeves and dresses it down a bit so I can wear it to a greater variety of places.

I used silk dupioni for this project.
