I made the dress View E from the vogue vintage pattern which I bough from Ebay.
I am always so excited and nervous to try a vintage pattern because i can't find a lot of reviews and I don't know what it will look like.
This is the pattern. Vogue 1551.
It looks like a 90's design which is trending 2020/2021. 😂
Big collar , the chic fashion.
I love it just like this.
I will use this cotton lawn fabric. I bought it from south korea.
Tracing the pattern. I will use size UK8 for this design.
I found out that the hip is too tight for me!
So i un-stitched this again and made the seam allowance 0.5mm instead of 1.5cm. 😂
The shoulder is slightly bigger on me but i will just keep the pattern this time.
now the skirt length is too long on me. ðŸ˜
I am 153cm and small..... so I am always needing to dealing with length.
but the skirt design is a mermaid line. so if i trimmed the length... The skirt will be an H line.ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
So I decided to keep the length as well.
Here , I finished my dress.
Next time,
I will use size 6 for the top, and will amend the skirt panels based on my body size.
and I will shorten the length and keep the mermaid skirt.
anyway, It came out really nice.
I love the design. So classic and trendy at the same time
I have uploaded my sewing-vlog. It is in Korean but i added ENG sub.
