i made this cotton long sleeve dress or a baju kurung moden - a work in progress

i have ventured into long sleeve dresses.  worn with a maxi skirt.  i bought this fabric from a friend.  it is cotton....from india.  it is lightweight and smooth.  love it.

loose fitting.  don't need any zipper or other closure



simple neckline, wide enough to slip the dress over my head

nailed the set in sleeve :)
no shoulder pads
