Paisley Dress With Stand Collar

I wanted to make the summer wardrobe for my little daughter and I have started with this paisley dress. I had some leftover pieces of a kameez and decided to make this dress I had already designed for her.

I just love paisley fabrics and I love this color combination too. I used the leftover border fabric of the kameez for the sleeves, front button and buttonhole stands, and for the bows on the sides.

The features of this dress are stand collar (also called Mandarin collar or Nehru collar), high back neck, Kimono sleeves, and hidden side pockets in the skirt.

I have linked this to the link party on Creative Itch.
