THE Perfect Sweater?
That’s it. I’m in love. Screw all my WIPs, UFOs and queues. I’m setting them all aside and hiring a personal trainer now so that I can lose 30 lbs. Why? Because I need to look really hawt and emaciated, and losing 30 lbs is the only way that I’ll lose the boobage I have (Believe me, 10lbs doesn’t make my boobs shrink at all), so that I can pull this super awesome sweater dress off:

I think this dress is awesome too, but I think that the cowl is just a tad much, don’t you agree? I think it would bring too much emphasis to my large head.

My only concern is that I may not quite have the height to pull it off. I’m roughly about 5′5″, maybe 5′ and 4.75″. I need to go get some 5″ heels too really make the outfit, since I really don’t have the height advantage that Aubrey has.
It’s an interesting dress. I agree that the cowl is a bit much. Also, you’re going to have to stay inside an air-conditioned area while wearing it, unless you want to melt. It looks slightly heavy for a dress.
I noticed that the strips of knitting are conveniently placed to just cover nipples. Do you suppose there was some taping involved?
No, garments just naturally lay where you need them to lay. Either that, or the model was born without nipples or lacks melanin in her nipples and areolas.
Well that’s an original dress! Just stepping in to say I really love your blog, and your designs too!
Thanks so much! ::blush::
Ha! My attempt at sarcasm was apparently too believable. A couple of my friends asked if I was being serious. LOL. Also, I must be really ha-ha crazy if my good friends think that I would be crazy enough to take on such an unique knitting challenge.
Even though I’m 65, I’d wear it if I could get away with it. But I’m afraid IT would wear ME. People who don’t know me very well think I’m a little nutty as it is.
