Vintage Remake Ruffle Collar Dress


Hello FRUMPMEISTER! Yes, my mother laughed at me when she saw me pick up this black beauty. I probably look like I could be a sister wife in this get up or Carrie's mother (scary, I know).

But a few snips here and there and she was ready for a night on the town or rather a three hour church service ;)

How 'bout an uncropped photo for ya! I guess I don't pay my photographers enough.

I love the round collar and the awesome thing is the ruffle is detachable so if I want to kick this dress up a notch with a cool necklace I totally can in a snap-or a few buttons ;).

This is absolutely gorgeous Misty!!!! where do you usually thrift shop at? we only have the Di and a couple of small ones around here that I go to. The di is too expensive for my taste now. I can seriously by new for Chloe for someo of the prices they charge!

First, your finds are amazing! Second, your ability to see a finished project blows me away. I would have never pictured the finished outfit from the first picture. You rock!
