I made this dress last year for a wedding I was going to, It's a 1950's style halterneck and took ages. It was the hardest pattern I've ever had to follow but I loved the outcome. The fabric was the most expensive part as it cost me £50 for 4 meters on ebay but I do have some left that I shall be using at some point to maybe make a matching clutch bag or a hair accessory :D

I also made the same dress again for a hen party but shortened it and added a tail because I went as the cowardly lion :D

*Note* The belt is my own.
