Hot! MTL: Aviary Enthusiast Dress

posted July 12, 2011 / 4 Comments

While the fabric for this one doesn't quite match up with the original, it certainly manages to capture the spirit of the Aviary Enthusiast Dress. And it's voile, so it will be super romantic. The Vogue pattern also requires a slip underneath (pattern included) that should prevent anyone from bird watching you too closely.

    This is so funny- I redid my dining chairs with the same fabric as the Modcloth dress a year and a half ago!

    I bought mine at WalMart (slim fabric pickings in rural NC). But it is apparently still available for anyone who wants it.

    I have a little left, and it’ll probably end up a purse one of these days.

    Great fabric find, A.J.A.! I love that this feature includes so many of my favorite ModCloth dresses.
