Pink Pleated Dress

I refashioned this dress quite a while back and somehow completely forgot to post it here! It's one of my favorites to date so of course I still have to share it.

Here's the original dress.  I took a poll on Instagram from my followers to see what they thought I should change on it. I got some great ideas and tried to go with what the majority suggested.


First, I took the high neckline down to a jewel neckline. 
Next I trimmed the sleeves down to cap sleeves and tightened them a bit.
Then I brought the hemline up to just above the knee.
Lastly I tightened the bodice area just a bit to create a more flattering fit.


Side-by-side



Isn't it pretty?! I love how wearable and flattering it turned out.
What do you think?

  3. What a beautiful dress. I am a fan of flower dresses. Being a fashion designer, I love to create flower dresses and skirts for myself too.
