A client came to me with this dress after a previous seamstress had added eyelets to the back. Unfortunately, no tie had been provided to lace the dress up, and the eyelets themselves had a sharp finish that was scratching the client’s back.
I removed the eyelets and replaced them with fabric loops, then created a matching fabric tie to lace up the dress properly. I also added a modesty panel to the back for extra comfort and coverage.
Safe to say, I had one very happy client, and I hope she gets plenty more wear out of this dress now.
