Minerva Crafts Meet Up – Dress Reveal

Hello hello!

It’s time for the full reveal of my Minerva meet up dress. Let’s quickly recap, I had chosen a beautiful cotton sateen and had to make a lovely party dress for an evening of fun and frolics. Here it is!

Everyone was dressed to the nines which was great. I loved my dress; I can attest to how fun it was to dance in.

This is McCalls 6833 (the strappy version with a gorgeous pleated skirt). Because I used red crepe-like satin as my lining the dress felt especially nice to wear. It didn’t take much convincing to get me back into the dress for additional photos!

And how about some photos of the day? Words fail me to convey how busy, bubbly and fun this day was. I hope the photos show this!

    What a fantastic store! I found myself looking at ALL the dresses and saying, I bet they made that! Your dress fits the bill supremely.

  5. You look amazeballs!

  6. Beautiful dress Amy! I’m glad you had a good evening.

  7. Gorgeous posh frock. I’ve got that pattern. I bought some of that fabric, after seeing your sneak peek, and I think it will be just perfect for a Vogue dress pattern I want to make to wear to a friend’s wedding. A bit of stretch is always good for dancing (and eating!) on these occasions.

  8. Great dress. Love it!

  9. Gorgeous dress (sateen was the perfect choice!) what fun! 🙂

  10. Ah! This dress is so beautiful – I wouldn’t have envisioned something so pretty from the pattern envelope, but you really made it work! xx

  11. Gorgeous Amy! Can I presume one had consumed too much booze to take evening party dancing photos?

  12. It looks like you had a great day! Your dress is super cute. I love the neckline and bodice section.
