Floral Sampler Gown with French Trim in Liberty of London

Floral Sampler Gown with French Trim in Liberty of London

This fabric is some of the prettiest I’ve come across. If you are a flower lover, it’s for you. I lost count of the varieties and, if you have a magnifying glass, each flower is labeled. And of course, Liberty Tana Lawn is like silk.

Today’s gown has a fitted, dropped waist bodice that expands into a voluminous skirt with a purple tulle underskirt. The bodice has band sleeves, over which extends a piece of handmade passementerie. Silk ribbon bows in green contrast with the purple in the trim decorate the shoulder.

My beautiful Marie is the work of the incomparable Matt Sutton.

This fashion fits Silkstone Barbie, Poppy Parker, NUFace.

Bubble Dress à la Française

Posted on

Not long ago, I took a magical trip with my beloved Berry family to London! I was flown in as a surprise for Rebecca’s special birthday trip. What a glorious week we had. One of the most special places for me was the trip to Liberty of London, where I blew most of my budget and bought 9 meters of fabric. Another highlight was the Marie Antoinette exhibition at the V&A museum. More inspired outfits will be coming from both. In this fist gown, I was inspired to use some of my new Liberty lawn with details à la Française to give a nod to Marie Antoinette.

The lawn is ombré pink with vertical metallic gold stripes woven in. The featured flowers are peonies in dark pink and yellow. The bodice is off the shoulder with a ruched bust. Four pink silk ribbon bows decorate the front. The skirt is a voluminous bubble decorated with a handmade trim flourish on either side.

This dress will fit most 1/6 scale dolls
