Summer Natural Linen Tea Length Dress
by awhitedress
Soft natural linen and cotton empire waist a-line dress for a short beach wedding dress or romantic occasion.
Mushrooms and soft clouds were friends of her everyday and she loved little turtles and gentle creatures like otters. She wore a tiny chain around her neck with the smallest baby ring on it. She wasn’t working at being different, only she couldn’t seem to help it. She was so happy that she had found someone who understood – and cherished her!
I found a pretty linen skirt to recycle. I loved the soft sideways pleats and gentle ragged edged ruffles and the softness of natural linen. I added a white cotton/spandex flower print bodice to make it an empire waist and covered it with a top layer of stretch taupe netting. I made swirls of netting along the top necklines and gave it soft 40′s glamour style straps. You can bunch the straps up or wear them wide. I added a tiny distressed chocolate frill.
