F for Fashion reconstruction #8

This black number is one of 3 dresses I bought from a store in Sydney while on a business trip in 2012.




It reminded me of one of the dresses Audrey Hepburn wore in the movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's".


So for this fashion reconstruction, I decided to turn this dress into a long dress by pairing it with a skirt I bought from Hong Kong that same year.





With the help of my masterful sister, the long dress turned out to be just as I had imagined.


And as usual, I put my crafty monkey talent to work by adding some embellishments, which took me an extra 2 weeks to complete.




I still have not decided if I should give this dress a pair of sleeves. So for now, I am just happy to wear it as it is. Perhaps, on a more formal occasion, I could pair it with a shawl or with the shrug I recently made.




Who could tell that this was a cut-and-paste project, if I had not disclosed the facts?


I can proudly say that you cannot find this item anywhere. 💃🐒👌🙋
