From 90’s Merp to 60’s Mod Dress Refashion

When I found this frock, I was immediately drawn to its amazing buttons!

I actually like a few things about this one. It’s made of linen, so it’s nice and breathable. I like the oddly sculpted raglan sleeves too. 🙂

When I first got it home, I threw caution to the wind and tossed it in my washing machine, despite this oddly specific care label:

Next, I tossed it on my dress form and got to fitting!

I didn’t want to make it too fitted. I was thinking more of a 60’s mod look.

First I stitched…

….then I serged off the raw edge.

Next, I removed some of the length.

After a quick hem, I was done!

I dig it!

Cheers!
