Silversaga Eleonara Dress
A make by SewHayleyJane
About this make
I have mixed feelings about this dress, it took me 2 years to finish and was originally meant to be an ode to Bridgerton, which I think it is!
I love the majority of the dress, especially the fit, but the sleeves are so enormous, especially in this cotton that I feel a bit self-conscious in it!
The cotton poplin is beautiful, from Roo-tid and a joy to work with.
The neckline was fiddly as you had to press in a large curve to make an elastic channel which created tucks and puckers. Once the elastic was in though it wasn’t noticeable
