| My dress all finished, paired with so-so hair. Always a pleasure when one's hair doesn't dry overnight, and drastic measured must be taken the next day, lol. |
I finished the 1933 Vintage Vogue 2671 just in time, and even though I feel I didn't do a very pristine job, I like how it turned out a lot, and it was comfortable to wear. I paired it with a pink silk slip I made a few years back.

Lovely dress, your hair doesn't look amiss at all. My hair has issues with wet sets and drying overnight so I feel your pain.
ReplyDeleteit's always a moment of "oh noooo!" when you wake up in the morning and unroll that first curler to discover it's not dry. /sigh. Ah well, it turned out okay in the end
DeleteSo very CUTE! I love it! :)
ReplyDeleteI think you look darling. And I wouldn't feel bad about your hair. Women back in the day had difficult hair days too!
ReplyDeletePS I LOVE those shoes!
Very true! My grandmother had a great story about her friend always being late for things because her hair hadn't dried, lol
DeleteYou look so cute!
ReplyDeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteYour dress looks absolutely beautiful! I love how it looks with the pink tone from the slip.
