So here is my first holiday picture in the lovely Liberty print fabric I showed you a few months ago. Actually I have worn this beauty a few times but got distracted by tea and cake and didn't get a good photo until now. The view is from the southern most tip of Taiwan at sunset. Just beautiful sea, textured rocks and the setting sun.
The pattern is Vintage Vogue V8789. I have made it up with a slightly less full skirt, using 2 skirt panels instead of 4. However this makes it much more wearable every day. Again I love a slash style neck. Although doing a v neck version is tempting. This pattern has the lovely fabric loops and buttons I have used in tops before. It was lovely to make a full dress of this pattern this time instead of just the top.
The Liberty Tana Lawn is cool and crisp to wear perfect for this hot climate. However I have worn a slip with this dress as the cotton is quite sheer otherwise.
