new from old

About 5 years ago I bought this dress to attend a wedding. I liked it at the time and thought it looked nice (I think I was the only one). Since then, the dress hung in my closet and has never been worn again.


Last week I decided it was time to make a small alteration. So I cut it! About 30cm was taken off the hem.


The result? An awesome new dress that I wore to a Hens Night party on Saturday night.


 I'm very happy I finally did something to it and now I can wear it again and again!
