A breezy halter sundress for sunny days, beach trips and summer birthdays. ☀️

Lara has a sweet halter yoke and a light, gathered skirt that moves when she runs.
Make it as a knee-length dress or a hip-length top, and choose a pleated or gathered neckline.
Sew it in simple cotton or linen for everyday, or add lace for a special day.

A tailor ruined my wedding dress during alterations, and I kept the fabric for seven years. I finally turned it into matching dresses for my daughter and me for my son's baptism, the best use of a fabric so close to my heart.
