The Elisalex Dress

The latest dress I've made is this dress pattern by By Hand London...a new fave. I know it seems like I say an outfit I just made is always a fave, but I do find that I improve a little bit more with each project so it becomes one I really love. But this dress, you guys....seriously a LOVE.

By Hand London Elisalex Dress
 I honestly thought after the first fitting that this would be too small and would not fit, but I opted to still finish it, and what do you know? It fit perfectly after everything was done!


worn with an old H&M heels

In progress:


Hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend!

I would totally wear this piece -- it fits quite nicely. And I love the progress pics. They show that the dress would also have been a really cute crop top.

Such a perfect fit. I love your shoes, it matches the flame orange in your hair. Speaking of hair, did you grow it out in the 3 weeks I was gone? Beautiful!

That's so pretty and I really like the fit!
Congrats on making such a lovely dress. I love how versatile it is, you can spice it up with a biker jacket, or wear it with a cool brooch to make it into a Mad Men-Joan outfit.

Happy Easter! Wow, look at you go! I love this dress and the darting, pleating in front and back. The heels are a nice touch too.

Hey family!! You guys look great and nice to see Hubby make the picture too.:)

Enjoy your week!
I think this is one of my favorite dresses that you've made Emmy! Love the silhouette and the slight retro feel. This is totally the type of dress you can dress up or down easily :)
