Summer spots – Thea’s altered Vogue 8764
January 30, 2015
Ever used a pattern for its silhouette but made some pretty major changes to suit your style preference? Here’s lovely Thea from Bernina Chatswood who modified Vogue 8764 to make this new sleeveless shift dress.
The style alterations she made to the pattern were adjusting the front neckline, eliminating centre front seam on the bodice and skirt, cutting away the armholes, removing the sleeves, adding mock jet pockets to the front for detail, curving and facing the hemline.
Thea’s summer frock looks fabulous and made up perfectly in our spotted linen Lucia Spot 100% linen from last summer. This one’s sold out but you can take a look at our other linens here.
