WI Little Black dress competition

Angela has entered this competition and brought her re-designed dress to show us at the AGM - and after some persuasion even modelled it for us. She needs it to go to London for early December - I don't think she got any volunteers to take it - so she will post it. We all thought she'd done an excellent job. Cheers Angela and good luck.


Sorry no picture BUT the design includes an 'addition of multi-colour material for the very top and sleeves and an extra portion at the hem - it looks good - just shows what can be done by a clever needlewoman!!


(Went to Cheddar WI where member Trish Williams had made a dress of cut up plastic 'black' meat trays - in small pieces - fantastic!! It was like a Charleston dress she wore high heels and a pearly necklace with a feather in her hair - looked very stylish - she is going to model it in London on 1st December. Trish says it's not very comfortable but it looks brilliant. Angela's dress will be there as well).
