Dress was originally a white thrifted A New Day dress. I used it as part of a test for a new procion dye sample that I was experimenting with. It was supposed to be burgundy!Imagine my surprise when it turned out this soft purple tone. Dress is in good condition, no flaws, has been washed, dyed, washed again, and line dried. I’m not keeping it, as it’s not a good fit for my body. It would look lovely on someone with more of a bust than me! It has a heavy drape, and I love the way the structured panels shape the bodice.
“Just an unexpected dye result, which is always an interesting experience! 😅”
