A dress for the Day




This dress is called a day dress, one would wear it during the day at home. It has some very interesting design elements to it. The front of the bodice is gathered, and it also has a white cotton lawn collar attached. There are two triangular shapes for each sleeve called jockeys. {Don't ask cause I don't know this one... lol} She has a ruffle of matching lace at the bottom with a hand dyed velvet ribbon trim just above it. A belt trim of the same velvet ribbon, and a matching bow tie at the neckline of a hand dyed wide satin ribbon.
This shade of blue turns her eyes another shade to match, as well.
