I (very occasionally) have posh dinners to attend in London! And I wanted a chiffon overlay dress, so I decided to make one to wear to the next dinner!
The pattern is Simplicity 2398 and I added the chiffon skirt overlay by making an extra skirt front from chiffon then roll hemmed it down the centre!
Excuse all the selfies, I made this in quite a rush and failed to actually model at any point! The bodice has a lace applique fan on it as I was attending a Fanmakers event!
This is me on our hotel room just before dinner! I wore my hand knitted blue chunky shawl, pearls and did my hair in an enormous bun to accessorize! An d of course I took a fan (cream lace), but I seem to have failed to get any pictures of me with the fan and dress!
And here I am at dinner with a Pikeman! I really want to learn how to use a pike now!
