Silhouette

*Image & dress via The Outnet

The silhouette of this dress is almost an exact replica of a dress I found at the Salvation Army for a whopping $3.50. The dress I scored is a vintage, turquoise silk, Maggy London from the 80s and was 50% off when I bought it. I need to shorten the hem a bit to bring it up to date and am thinking of making the collar a bit more of a boat neck. Those are the only two alterations I think it needs to jump forward a few decades. Because it's silk, I think I'll leave the work to a true professional. Have you stumbled upon any gems lately?
