Plum Pin-up

just finished a new dress!!  the design is something i made up on my own, but the inspiration to make a pin-up dress came from the awesome red Bettie Page pin-up i bought from the store where i work.

after some research for what type of fabric to use for my pin-up inspired dress, i found this awesome this awesome plum stretch bengaline.  since the dress has a pin-up vibe the bodice is very fitted and for the bottom i did a 1/2 circle skirt, instead of a full circle skirt.  the fabric is so comfy and i absolutely LOVE how it turned out!!
