Beige and Teal Cocktail dress: This dress was inspired by the vintage look from Vogue pattern V2902. The pattern was modified by cutting a triangle in the front, back and the sides where the top layer skirt was sewed in. Instead of using the straps from the pattern I created my on strap for the top which is embelished with bronzed bugle beads in the front, back and shoulders. The second layer skirt was constructed using Simplicity 4236 which was slightly modified by elongating the waist and the material from the straps was added to accentuate the dress.
