Anna Maxi Dress
comments (0) July 21st, 2010 in galleryInspired by Anna Maria Horner's beautiful fabric, I made this dress for my 31st birthday party. The voile drapes perfectly and is lovely and cool for a hot English summer day.
The front of the dress is made up of three panels - and the back has three. There is a zip inserted in the back seam. The raw edges were finished with bias binding made from the same fabric. The front pieces are gathered into the yoke to make a nice gathered shape.
Pattern or design used: My own design - Christine
