This lovely nostalgic dress is made from Verity’s childhood duvet cover which, in its turn, was made by Verity’s mother using a pair of utterly fabulous sheets.
Unearthed from its home of many years in the attic, Verity sent it to me and asked for it to be transformed into a dress with a matching sash belt.
After a brief moment of nervousness when I showed this photo on Instagram, Verity soon recovered:
“…it’s just occurred to me I’m going to be literally wrapped in my childhood duvet… how comforting will that be?!”

Isn’t that lovely?
I always want my dresses to be comfortable, but I hadn’t really thought about them being comforting as well. I’m looking forward to hearing from Verity once she’s had a chance to try on her new dress – I hope that being wrapped in her childhood duvet lives up to her expectations!
