The Oriental Dress

Here's my version of the cheongsam spiced up with a juicy Japanese fabric called Candy Pop, chinese collar and cute little fabric buttons. Something different in an absolutely yummy fabric!

Reversible Retro Dress




Irresistably cute is this Reversible Jumper with round retro collar. Very versatile, two beautiful dresses in one and could be worn on its own or over jeans. One side comes with a huge pocket while the other side retro belt details. Pattern by famed fabric designer Sandi Henderson.


Here's my one-year old princess donning side B on New Years Day 2010.


And side A on a sunny day in Feb 2010. Oh how she has grown. The next time she should be wearing this dress as a top with jeans:) That's how versatile it is.



Designer Fabric (Side A):
1) Tanya Whelan's Picnic Damask in Pink

Designer Fabric (Side B) :
1) Sandi Henderson's Farmers Market Dahlia
2) Sandi Henderson's Ginger Blossom Bouquet Toss in Blush
3) Sandi Henderson's Ginger Blossom Vintage Dots Breeze

This was such a fun dress to make that I couldn't stop at one! Here're more photos of variations made and I will update the list where possible.
