One of the glorious pleasures of planning my next dressmaking adventures is the wealth of ways I can think of to make garments more interesting.

I am currently coveting some vintage trim for the frock I have in mind.

Around a sleeve, across a bodice, or peeping out from a hem, there’s something wonderfully innocent-yet-flirty-at-the-same-time about a bit of trim.

The only problem will be deciding which to go for…

All of these wonderful vintage trims were sourced via Etsy.
