Perfect for summer
This lovely dress arrived today, all the way from India. I like its simplicity, and the embroidery is a nice touch. The fabric is lightweight and breathable, and great for a hot summer day. I ordered a size S and found it to be quite a loose fit (I normally wear size S or 4), but I think it would look nice too, with a belt. Looking forward to wearing it!
Nice colors, great stichwork, and a lot of character
I was somewhat on the fence about how cartoonish the birds looked in the picture, but I love birds and I love purple, so I figured it was worth getting. Up close, you can see just how detailed and perfect the stitchwork is. It also becomes clear that she is depicting these birds in naturalistic poses that I recognize from my own birds. Ms. Perez is clearly both a great seamstress and a great observer of nature, and she also has a good color sense. I also really like the composition on this piece.
