Something old becomes something new


 My grandmother gave me a bag of her old clothes from the 1970's and it was a treasure trove. Most of the items are just a little too 70's to keep as they are and I will be revamping them and they will be available to purchase through Meandering Design. Except, I could not bear to part with this one because I absolutely adored the print.

As you can see, as a dress, the print practically screams 1970's polyester.





The wide lapel gives you an approximate idea of its age!  


Yet, when I take off the top of the dress, the skirt that emerges is quite lovely and actually au courant in its color scheme and pattern.
