The skirt was also an easy sew on the Christmas party dress.the style is a blouson effect and has an elastic casing to bring the fabric in at the waist.

I made sure that my skirt was going to be the correct length so I could use the scalloped edge

It was at this point that I needed a real try on with my shoes. I also wanted to make sure that the length was right and where to hem the lining to. The pattern has a slit in the back of the skirt but due to the lace I decided to miss it out on my dress.

The last part of the sew along will be the finishing touches. I love choosing these parts of a dress and I usually have an idea already planted in my head- I can’t wait to show you!
