houndstooth knit dress / 150.



 houndstooth is a difficult thing to make special; it is special enough because it is always cool, but nothing ever looks super unique. black and white houndstooth is an easy fall back and any clothes i have seen that do look different don't look special in a smart way. so i am not going to go on about this one. 

 i just dig the really really really fat collar, which is hand stitched to the bodice


and the dress is actually in four pieces but i lined it up as well as i could (considering sea allowances) to make it look like a solid piece.


so the front



and the back



and the end.



ps. i have a tendency to look like queen bitch in sunglasses. that is just a tendency not a truth :)
