Peasant Style

I don't have many outfits from the 70's and am trying

to reproduce some of the Best Buy era types.  I have

made a few sundress straight from a 1970's pattern

that look very nice.

I wanted a more peasant or gypsy look so took a bodice 

from one pattern and a skirt from another, added some 

other details and these are the results.

Free's outfit is a little more 'southern belle' than 

peasant or gypsy, I think.  It's a little too poufy, though

maybe it's just the fabric is not soft enough. But I

like it.

I think P.J.'s outfit came out better and is my favorite

of the two.  I like the suspender style, it looks cute.

I have some eyelet and gingham fabrics that have a

very soft hand so may use them to try some more

variations of these dresses.

All in all not bad outfits and my hippie ladies have more

a few more clothing options.  They are happy!
