Handmade Wardrobe // mommy and me

my dress: True Bias Ogden cami hacked into tiered dress with tie straps

Penny’s dress: self drafted

fabric: all colors of double gauze from Mood Fabrics

—————————————————————————————————

Are these not the ultimate mommy-and-me looks? I’ve done a lot of matching looks for us, but wearing these dresses with her just makes me melt.

My dress is a simple hack for the Ogden cami - just cut in a very cropped length, and then 3 gathered rectangles, each one longer than the other, to create the tiered look. And of course, I’m obsessed with tie straps. So I just lengthened the strap pattern piece and cut 4 instead of 2. I went back and forth a lot about which colors I wanted to use, but these ones definitely make me happy. And double gauze is my favorite fabric, so the combo is just soooo good.

Penny’s matching dress is just 3 rectangles, with the top one having an elastic casing along the top edge. Easy peasy!
