Susan's 1940's Day Outfit

   The blouse and skirt below were inspired by the outfit worn by Susan Pevensie in “The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe”.  

The skirt is made of lovely dark blue and green plaid wool. Lined with soft silky lavender lining to add that little hint of elegance. Closes with an invisible zipper for a smooth and secure fit.

For the blouse, I used a drapey lavender fabric that had the look and feel of a vintage fabric, but was in fact brand new.

The blouse features hand covered fabric buttons, a collared neckline and short slightly gathered sleeves.

The outfit featured here was custom made for a customer, but it can be made in many sizes.

Oh, I LOVE Susan's dresses and outfits. When we watch both Narnia movies, every time she appears on screen in something new, I say "I like that dress!". It drives my family crazy. :)

Thank you for the comment! My sister has dark hair, and there are times, when I brush it, that I just am amazed at how beautiful it is.

I love the dress! :)

Have a very bright, very cheerful day!

That is really great, it looks just like it!
I'm going to try to start sewing this summer, I'll probably start by doing a cape, like the ones the fellowship wears in The Fellowship of the Ring.
God Bless,
Taylor
