Vintage inspired Jackie Dress

Just another update form my sewing room..

The best surprise for me on my birthday last year was I received a copy of Burdastyle Sewing Vintage Modern book as a gift from a close friend of mine.. Isn't it a wonderful for a passionate sewer ;) This weekend I worked on two projects and managed to complete both.. First I want to blog about the Jackie dress from the book.. I made it for a sewing challenge.

I made it for the RTW knock off contest at the patternreview.. As per the rules of the contest we have to make a garment as similar to the garment you saw originally , It could be anything current or from the past.. LOL I feel my dress is very similar in style but not my smile and pose .. The model in that book is too very cute to imitate (sigh!)..

This dress is a variation of the base pattern from the book.The steps are given in the book and we have to draft it. It was clearly written steps.

I love the collar. It features a bow on the belt too.

Materials used : Satin Silk material. 

Closures : Invisible Zipper.
