Marilyn

I wore this dress to a lovely summer wedding today...I haven't worn it in ages(I think the last time I wore this outfit was for our engagement pictures about three years ago!!) It's one of the first dresses I ever made, when I started sewing about 5 years ago, and today I noticed a few technical issues in the construction....sometimes you don't notice how much you've improved on a skill until you compare early projects with later ones.

The style of this dress reminds me of the iconic dress Marilyn Monroe wore in The Seven Year Itch. The belt is vintage, from one of my grandmothers, and the shoes are probably my very favorite pair that I own, by Poetic Licence.
