Frocktails Outfit Inspiration!

Our lovely Treasurer, Kate, has put together a FANTASTIC post with all sorts of Frocktails outfit inspo!!


If you’re reading this post, I hope you’re thinking about coming to our inaugural Frocktails event!!  It will be a wonderful evening of enjoying food, conversation, and fashion with fellow Ottawa-area sewists.

You may also be wondering what to make to wear? I am so excited to offer some ideas of what you could make for Frocktails.  I have taken inspiration from the runway and red carpets of the world, and I hope you are inspired by these garments. I also lucked out with the Emmy awards taking place on September 17, providing an influx of gowns and suits to populate this post with!
