The style is very straight, much like the one-hour dress I made before. But I&#8217;d have to figure out some interesting pink contrast trim down the center &#8212; perhaps buttons or frogs like the image. Which would mean buying a bunch of stuff, and I&#8217;m currently broke.<\/p>\n<p>I colorized these second two images to suit my tastes&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The ruffled dress has a bit more shaping, which might be more flattering than &#8217;20s dresses usually are on me (or anyone with curves!). I&#8217;d like to make it from black silk, as per the catalog. That dress needs some pink trim, and I have loads of hot pink ribbon in The Stash.<\/p>\n<p>The stripey dress is very intriguing. It&#8217;s kind of the basic straight-shape, but with a little gathering in the skirt, maybe a blouson bodice. And then there&#8217;s this striped apron on top of the skirt. Weird! But cool! I could piece pink silk (leftover from my Carnivale francaise) with black to make the apron. Slap on some hot pink roses and *bam* wacky Gatsby dress.
