Silk Leapord Print Dress

I made this dress and only wore it once this summer. It has a scalloped hem. In theory it looked cute but it was sort of strange in reality. It originally went down to my ankles but now it goes to about my knee

I ended up only wearing it once, but I haven't worn it again since I shortened it.

I didnt use a pattern on this dress wither, but i should have, the tube part of the dress was too loose and uneven.

Sewing a wardrobe: Snake Skin Print Dress

This dress is a silk stretch. i made it before i got my serger so i had to work really hard to maintain the elasticity o the fabric, since stitched tend to break on stretch fabrics.

I never wear it with heels, usually flip flops but its a really soft breathable dress. Whats nice about the silk is that it doesnt make the print look shiny or weird. It could go tacky very quickly with blends.

I used no pattern btw. But becuase I liked the way this tuned out Im going to make one based off of tis with 5/8 seam allowances.
