Party Dress (from so long ago)

In the late 2000s when bubble hems were all the rage, all I could dream of was a bubble hem dress in an obnoxiously loud print.

So! I draped it. I traced my draped pieces in newspaper and trued then up. Then I created a final brown packaging paper version photographed here.

Dress is fully lined with boning! It actually still fits me like a glove, even though I now do chin ups and have rather different looking arms.
