This is a follow-up post from Part 1.
The pictures from yesterday didn't show much detail so I took some today with better lighting. Here's how the belt looks when you can see it:
And here's a closeup:
The bias skirt is very comfortable as it moves with the body. With the fabric being a linen/cotton blend and the dress unlined, I was expecting a lot of wrinkles. To my very pleasant surprise, very few actually formed and those that did were very soft and hung out after a while. Bias rocks!

I Love the new dress, the color, the style, how it fits, the bias, everything. Just perfect (you owe yourself more pretty, wonderful, jazzy outfits like this one!)
Lovely, lovely, lovely dress! Fantastic color too.
Beautiful dress, Alexandra!
I can't believe the pattern is from 1999. Talk about timeless. The dress is beautiful and fits you to a "T".
What a beautiful, classic dress - and it looks amazing on you. What more could you ask for?

Wow, you are a knockout in this dress. Thanks for the supplemental post as it looked black on my computer in Part 1. I love the color, now that I can see it.
I am soooo loving that dress! And I am glad that you solved the "toos" with the bow belt 'cause it just adds to the beauty of the dress!
Lovely dress, it fits you perfect.
Beautiful dress, the belt is great too.
Thanks for the details! The way you have it knotted in the front is very neat. I simply cannot make a neat knot. I need a tutorial for bows and knots.
This dress looks great on you. Yes, it definitely is a TNT.
Wow, it looks awesome! I really like the belt detail. :)
Hugs,
