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.

Finished Vogue 2671, with my alteration to the neckline. I also shortened the skirt considerably. |

PS I LOVE those shoes!
