I'm so incredibly excited to share one of the most special dresses in our Autumn collection, The Sewing Kit Dress! This dress is made of pretty plum colored cotton which was screen printed (right here in Springfield) with a print I designed. It has a really fun collar too. Here's my sweet friend, Holly, sharing three ways to wear this dress…
In Holly's first styling she wore a wrap skirt (c/o Simone's Rose) over the dress with a pair of chunky wedges and a handmade hair piece. I love that this look is casual, but still very put together.
In Holly's second look she wore purple tights and purple shoes with a pop of color in the belt. Who says three shades of purple in one outfit can't work? I love it.
Note: In case you didn't know, Holly is 16 weeks pregnant in this photo. This dress isn't the least bit snug on her. This style is super easy to fit! This dress will absolutely fit her for the next few months of her pregnancy as well as post-pregnancy. Nice!
In Look 3, Holly wore a cute blazer, vintage scarf and glasses. I love the belt under the blazer. She told me that of all the outfits this would be the one she'd be most comfortable wearing to work as a salon owner.
Thank you Holly, for being an amazing model! I am so proud of this dress. Thanks for taking a peek! XO, elsie

Gah!! I LOVE THIS DRESS! That print is amazing, you really should start designing fabric. You’d be great at it!
I love all three looks. The collar is so girly and cute. PERFECT dress for fall! <3
I definitely have to get my hands on this dress! The desgin and fabric are so unique and the color is perfect for fall! I’m anxiously awaiting September 1st :).

PS: How cute would it be to use a measuring tape as a belt?! 😉
Absolutely gorgeous, this is my favourite out of the collection.
And Holly is looking so beautiful, positively glowing 🙂
So so pretty. The collar is what does it for me—so crisp and gorgeous.
And Elsie? The fabric is heaven.
Thank you for making such loveliness in the world.

this is definitely my favourite so far! it’s so special because it’s not only a dress you designed, but made up with your own fabric too! the colour is so perfect for a/w and that sailor-esque collar is just darling.
I just discovered your blog and I am in love with it! Keep up the good work.
i adore this dress..its really really pretty!!!! congratulations to you and all your team:)

This dress is perfection. Amazing print.
I love love love the dress and love love love the spool design on it (can I have it tattooed on my shoulder pllllleeeeeez?)
Such a cute dress, the collar is adorable. And I really love that you designed the print yourself, it makes it that little bit more special <3
when I saw the first picture on this post I thought «the first look is the one I like the best», finally it wouldn’t be me falling in love with the 3rd look! it happens that look comes in 3rd in the post haha it seems so weird to me how you always end up putting my favourite look in 3rd 🙂
btw this is my favourite piece from the entire collection, I absolutely love the pattern, I think you should create a collection in the future only with your own patterns 😉
absolutely cool!
This needs to be mine! Its so amazing!
Wow! Amazing dress! I would do blue tights I reckon!!!
I didn’t notice this dress before, but I LOVE it!!!
awww holly looks absolutely amazing in this dress!!! shes glowing! my fav look is number onei with the skirt! 🙂 xx
This dress just has your style all over it, Elsie – literally I guess! A true signature piece: I think it embodies all things Red Velvet 🙂
I reaaaaaaly love the first style!

Great outfits. When I wear this kind of dress with a super cute pattern & special details, I usually try to make the dress the center of attencion & I don’t wear many accesories. Although, I find the slender belt & the bright tights a very good idea to make the look more interesting, I have to try!
I love this dress and i cant wait to have it!!!!
I will definitely need a “Red Velvet Dress Fund” for all these beauties! Can’t wait till tomorrow! Hmm… Pay day is this week too!
This dress will be mine…its my favorite and I cannot wait!!!!! Hearts, Janna Lynn
I hope you made a lot of these because I’m sure there are a ton of us that need this dress! In love…
cuteeee dress & cuteeee model!

My favourite!
I must also know about the yellow shoes that look like loafers? I’ve seen them in quite a few posts. Where could one find a pair?
Being 18 weeks pregnant myself I love to see pregnant women in non maternity clothing. I was bummed at first that I wouldn’t be able to buy one of your amazing dresses for fall but after seeing Holly in this dress I am definitely reconsidering! Thank you, Elsie!
This is the one I love!!!!
It’s just perfect Elsie!!!!
I love the print!! 🙂 SO CUTE!
XO
Cute! This my fav so far! Love that fabric!
I’m so proud of my beautiful daughter! She’s lovely in all 3 looks! I especially love the 3rd one!
Wow! I love that! And I’m not big into dresses 🙂
This is adorable! These dresses just keep getting cuter 🙂
This one is definitely my favorite. New clothes aren’t in my budget right now, but if I were able to get one of these dresses, this would be the one.

YESSSS! This one comes in extended sizes AND looks great for maternity! Score for me all around! 🙂 Must have!
