The shift is from the Kannik's Korner pattern. I just added buttoned cuffs instead of the uncuffed sleeves in the pattern. The sleeve flounces are from Patterns of Fashion by Janet Arnold. They're made of linen and basted to the dress.
I'm not sure where you could buy either one ready made. Both are quite simple though!
It's absolutely lovely! And congrats on your success at CosCon - much deserved!

ReplyDeleteThe Fabric is so nice - one of the best dresses you made so far, i think (:
ReplyDeleteWow, this is so perfect. It is the first dress I've ever though "Wow this looks like an original that just came out of a museum".
ReplyDeleteLove it. Just love it.
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of shift do you have on and where can I find one? I love the sleeves!
