A new dress!



Feeling particularly inspired by 1950's fashion and winter issues of W Magazines (November, December and January all arrived the same week...???) I decided to embark on a new project: a fitted bodice with a full skirt. I couldn't find any great advice out there on how to make the skirt nice and full whilst keeping a clean waistline.

Rocha's on the left (from W Magazine) and Prabal Gurung on the right. Both used as inspiration.

I wanted to emulate Audrey Hepburn, although *not* in the Paris Hilton sort of way.

Yes, Please!
Ugh, please.








Using the last fading light of day, I photographed these pics below. I plan to wear this in "real" life soon, so I'll post more when I can!


With my J. Crew Carrie Coat.

The next day, with better lighting.
