The hot days of summer are coming. Here is an idea that will help:
This is the Lafayette 148 New York Harper Linen Embroidered Midi Dress. Price tag: $898.00. Details: Approximately 47" from shoulder to hem, sleeveless, v-neckline, a-line silhouette, open scalloped hem, slip over style.
Oh, this is a great time to take that tank you already have fitted and lengthen it to your desired length. Do not forget to make sure that the circumference is correct. Here is the hem detail close up:
The detail on the bottom of this dress is beautiful and can be accomplished with any sewing machine that has a zig zag capability or not. Beautiful embroidery was created on straight stitch machines a hundred years ago. Here is a blog post that might be of interest - "Can You Embroider With A Regular Sewing Machine". Here is a one book that might be of interest - Singer Instructions for Art Embroidery and Lace Work by Singer Sewing Machine Company. There are other books dedicated to free style embroidery that might be of interest.
Hope you are inspired to create something beautiful.
Happy Stitching!
