Here is Andy (the Mother of the Groom) wearing a fabulousĀ raspberry heavy washed linen dress made for her by Anna Ash of Ā IĀ ā¤ļøĀ Sewing .
The pattern is Vogue V1410 which has a wrap front rather than a front opening. The whole point of dressmaking is makingĀ exactly what you want* so of course these details are for us to alter!
*when I say we dressmake to get exactly what we want I mean within reason. We cannot alter patterns to remove a middle-age spread, or dropped shoulders, or [enter personal body hang-up here]. But we can dressmake toĀ disguiseĀ these things.
