Sewing Retro!: B4790 #9 A Done Deal

I realized I hadn't posted my finished dress. Here are some pictures:

Bigger buttons than the pattern asked for
because I like buttons.

I am still not thrilled with how deep the armpits are,
but there is no gap in the front or back, so I can
deal with that. Maybe a little blue camisole?

This is an uninteresting view of the back.

This shows the full circle skirt and
the under-skirt inside.

And the buttons. See how nice this fits?
It just took a little time and thought.

Be sure to read the other posts about this dress. I really enjoyed this challenge and was happy to see that even an 80s girl with a really thick waist and disproportionately large chest can wear this super cute dress. I did end up wearing it to the graduation. I can tell you without a doubt it was the only dress there like it. I got some disdainful looks from the some of the "Kardashian-look-alikes", but hey, I'm never been know to be a follower.

By the way, these are the shoes I chose to wear with it:

They are Andres Assous and the most comfortable shoe
over 3" I own.
