Vogue printed linen summer dress
Wearing my Vogue printed linen summer dress with contrasting piping in neckline and midriff edges.
Photo: Duncan KendallThis easy to wear, Vogue summer dress in a printed linen, has a contrasting print piping at the neckline and on the horizontal edges of the midriff. The close fitting bodice has princess seams, a squared- off under arm and a fitted midriff. The skirt also has princess seams and is quite full at the hemline. I took great pains in matching the fabric design both horizontally and vertically. So much so that the leftover fabric has been made into a sleeveless top! After cutting out my dress, I used a 2 thread overlock to finish my edges.
