purple summer dresses for women Mini Dress with Belt and Purse a garden party Lilac Purple Striped & Floral

I had planned on making this Leanne Marshall pattern, and came across a really beautiful sequined vest I thrifted to use as the bodice, but all plans went out the window when I found an even better bodice option

With an easy pull-on style, comfortable mesh fabrication, and sexy deep V neckline, this dress is a must in your suitcase

The slightly ruched top adds subtle texture, while the gathered skirt on the side adds visual interest and movement

It took me about a whole month to make the whole thing. The gown is made of 13 yards of emerald satin fabric, as well as crinoline and rigilene boning to help keep its shape
