Of course I always forget to take before pictures... but imagine the dress to have looked similar to this when I bought it, turtle neck and all!
It was black and white, however I wanted a bit more dimension, if you will. I was already dying a few things so threw the dress into a blue dye bath. It didn't take the blue on as bright as I had hoped, but it worked out well anyways!
So the first chop I made was getting rid of that awful turtleneck. I wanted a high-neck dress so cut, sewed, and tacked that in place first!

High-neck, check!
Next I decided I wanted to swoop the back and make it an open back!
Done with that!
Here are a couple other photos, overall I was very pleased with how it turned out and am so excited to wear it sometime soon!
Front and back in this one!
Don't mind my messy room! It was a busy week...
So there ya have it, another refashion in the books! :)
Enjoy, and stay crafty!
