this dress is one of the best i've ever seen.
i love it. your amazing.
i might even try it ..

Thank you Mimi Foxtrot, Serpentira, Jessica G., BloodyRose, and Ginger B.! Yes, I think more dresses need peplums too! The sewing is a bit tricky for this garment b/c it involves putting in an invisible zipper...but just take it slow and steady and it's doable!
Thanks so much for your comments!

What a great piece, more dresses need peplums!

omg ur gorgeous. amazing job on the dress and i love the gloves u made too :]

Sooo Cute!!!

Very neat- I love your instructions and pictures. I may or may not ever make this dress, but I certainly feel like I would be able to make a pretty decent go of it following this how-to. (My main stumbling block would be the sewing, I think. My sewing machine and I haven't had any quality time together in awhile since the majority of my projects are so small I just hand sew them rather than dig out the machine...) I really like the look of it.

*0* oooohhhh! so pretty~~~~it looks so pretty on you *note this is a 19 year old girl not a 1st grader*....al jokes aside this looks fun to make...^^b

Yes - and I even had the top part of the shirt + collar as leftovers! (So you can add extra fabric/details as you wish! Thank you for looking!<#

Wow! Having all these details will be helpful for customizing the dress. I like how you used every single bit of the shirt for the dress too.

Thank you Michelle G. Definitely try it if you have a men's shirt laying around - or make a trip to your local thrift store and give those ugly lumberjack shirts a new life!
