Ellie's Style Lisle Dress

In designing the Lisle dress,  I was inspired by a dress in my own wardrobe. This dress was based on Simplicity 2886, but when making it I added a contrast band to the skirt.

The dress has an upper bodice with a scoop neck which gathers to the lower bodice.  The lower bodice is in a coordinating fabric. 

The skirt is box pleated with a band of the coordinating fabric near the hem.  The side seams of the skirt have working pockets. 

Currently the Lisle Dress is available for #Hearts4HeartsGirls,  but a Disney Todler size is in the works.
