We Designed a Dress! Burgundy Corduroy Wrap Dress
Words can’t say just how excited I am to be sharing today’s blog post! Y’all know my love for a twinning mama and me look runs deep. It’s something Madeline and I love to do! I feel like this time of the year, with all the festivities among us, makes it extra fun and gives even more of a reason to get dressed up. I’ve been working on this project for a few months, and y’all…I DESIGNED A DRESS! Ahhh I still can’t believe it. I have been a long-time fan of Little Mia Bella, a favorite shop where I’ve been finding adorable twinning pieces for a few years now. My dear friend and the owner of LMB, Yotzelin, asked me to design a piece for fall/winter 2021, and I immediately said yes! We’ve been working on this project for months, and it’s so surreal to finally see the finished product come to life.
Conversations, texts, fabric samples, sketches, product samples, and the list goes on, are just a few of the details behind making this dress possible. We spent so much time perfecting every little detail! From the very beginning, I started thinking on all my favorite elements of fall fashion. I’ve always loved a good corduroy piece! I had no idea corduroy would be so in this season, but I’ve always seen it as a timeless fall texture. I decided a corduroy faux wrap dress would be the perfect piece to create. It’s a faux wrap dress, so that you don’t have to worry about it staying put. It snaps closed (I also wanted it to be breastfeeding friendly), and has the pretties little bow detail! I also wanted it to have a cinched in waist to define the waistline a little, but not be too cinched in. It’s the perfect amount! The sleeves are perfectly puffed with a tad bit of pleating. And the ruffle tiered detailing at the hem is the most gorgeous touch! I wanted it to be a midi length so that it would work for different heights. I’m 5’2, for reference. The kids size, being midi as well, will give your little one some extra room to grow with 🙂
Adult sizes range from S-XL and are $33 ($29 with my discount code) and kids are 6/9 months to 6/8 years coming in at $25 with my discount code: RACHELXLMB
I also designed this dress with family photos in mind. Tis the season for family photos, and I wanted to select a color that could easily coordinate with pieces for the entire family. I’m so in love with this beautiful jewel tone cranberry, and it’s just perfect for the holidays! I also wanted to create something that is such a statement in itself, that it doesn’t require a ton of styling. I think these sweet dresses turned out to be just that! 🙂
