Vintage Refashion #2

Here's a vintage dress I picked up at a sale at Circa on Gertrude Street, Fitzroy a few months ago, that I altered.

This used to have some little sleeves on it. They were cute but the cut was a little shapeless on me so I decided to update it by taking the sleeves off and finishing them off with some bias binding sewn on the inside.

Here's how it looks now. Isn't the pattern just divine? And I love the box pleat and the cute little buttons!
