This dress was finished before the "white shoe ban" of Labor Day. My daughter is very frustrated by this rule of Southern etiquette. In her opinion, I haven't stated a good enough reason to shelf her white sandals. It is hard to imagine fall coming when the temperature hasn't been below 80 degrees in weeks.
Pattern:
Babs by Children's Corner
published in 1997
Fabric:
from my stash Lecien Fabrics (I think)
White petite piping
Construction and Fit:
Easy dress to construct, even with miles of white piping.
The fit is a little off in the back. Elastic is added to the area under the buttons. My daughter needs either elastic across the whole back or darts in the back. Since I am shelving her white shoes, I plan to shelf the dress and see how much she grows through the winter.

This is such a beautiful dress!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great on her and I'm sure it will still look lovely next year :-)
(PS. While we don't celebrate "labor day" here, we share the same white shoe ban. Funny, isn't it?)
