1930's Evening Gowns

Recently on the Sew Weekly there was a wonderful post with photos of two truly amazing 1930's evening gowns.

The post went live just as I was wrapping up the editing of my own 1930's French evening gown patterns and I was so re-inspired that I just had to share.

I have a major case of what I'm starting to call "Side effect salad bar", which is basically little bit of everything from the long list of fun things that go along with the steroids I'm on to treat a chronic pain condition. So I'm not going to write much, just post pretty pictures for us all to enjoy.

Beautiful!!! Did you see Scarlett Johansson in Vogue this month? She is modeling a Prabal Gurung silk charmeuse dress in the 30's vibe gorgeous!

That coppery orange charmeuse gown is stunning! I love the pleated ruffles on it, too.

Happy sewing,

Katrina

Very pretty dresses! I also feel you on the chronic pain. I am missing most of my lowest disk in my back and have to have injections and take other anti-inflammatories on a regular basis. Not exactly great for the waistline.
