My Cupcake Super Short Dress

[sugarhandgrenade]

I bought half a yard of this wonderful cupcake material and then realized it wasn't enough to make much with. Soooo...I used it for the overlapping collar bit and the belt inset and voila!



It would probably look a 100 times better on someone who doesn't eat as much cupcakes as I do.

OOOO it's so cute! I love supershort dresses, wearing them over jeans. They're fun to make, easy to decide on length (haha) and you can do so much with them! I LOVE the material, and the neck bit is real cute (you just made me remember that i bought this beautiful polka dot material the other day, maybe i'll go make something with it! you've inspired me! )

anyway, claps for you! it's so cute!

Oh, hardly!  I think it looks smashing on you, and is a lovely use of a bit of extra fabric!

Oh, it looks so purty on you. I love how you did the collar, and don't worry, I love cupcakes toooo!

Aaahh!! I LOVE IT!!! I have so many not-enough-to-do-anything-with bits of novelty fabric, and this top is really inspiring!!! Is there a less cheesy word I could have used instead of inspiring? Anyway, great job, and it looks perfect on you (keep eating as many cupcakes as you like, you are gorgeous!)

that is adorable!
great job!
did you use a pattern, or just wing it?

[cheera]

I love it. Those dresses are my new obsession. Is the cupcake cotton or knit?

Love the asymetrical collar, the cupcake fabric, and how you hemmed it to a perfect length to wear with jeans.  Too cute.

That collar is wonderful!

Did you come up with that collar? It's spectacular. As are the colours.   Damn... the whole piece is great!
