Inspiration for the Marshmallow Dress

Marshmallow dress inspiration

Heeeeello ladies!

how are things going? Hope very well 😃 First of all would like to say a massive thank you for all your lovely comments about the Marshmallow Dress. I was so excited but scared at the same time about releasing it being my first pattern! so your love has been everything these days 😃

Now, down to business! So you have seen already some beautiful versions of the Marshmallow Dress (a trapeze with a drop waist) on social media thanks to the most amazing pattern testers ever.

Some opted for the version with the Peter Pan collar and short sleeves, others went for the 3/4 sleeves + cuffs, others chose a different fabric for the ruffle and others opted for a normal neckline without bow or collar. As you can you can make the Marshmallow your own! if you don’t do cute much or if you are 😃 

But! I wanted to give you a bit more inspiration in case you are thinking about making one and hopefully will help you decide about fabrics, colour combinations and more 😃So here it goes! (oh, and apologize in advance as I couldn’t find pictures of more diverse bodies. It makes me so angry how the Internet is full of the same body types! And it is a subject I am very conscious about.)
