Since temperatures have become noticeably chillier I have been playing with wool fabrics.
A traditional English style wool plaid caught my eye recently. It is 100% wool – what they label 140’s or 150’s. I brought it home and put it through a delicate cold wash and dry cycle. Afterwards I subjected the fabric to a nice long pressing using the highst heat setting on my cute little iron I purchased at a five and dime for $10. I took a few quick snapshots without making any effort to style the photograph.
Plaid Wool Sheath Dress
I double layered the fabric for both bodice and skirt so the entire dress has double thickness fabric throughout. The front of the dress is highlighted by two darts and an appliqued raw edge flower and ruffle at neckline.

The back of the dress features box pleating. The hem of the dress is slightly rolled as a result of the amount of fabric used in the skirt. But this gives the skirt a nice drape and structure.
