Highlighter Dress in the Wild

In 2015, I made what I called my Highlighter Dress, because of its color scheme, like highlighter on white paper. I liked it and wore it frequently, despite its ill-fitting sleeve.  The front of the armscye was not easy enough to allow my arm to move forward, and the sleeve cap was too shallow, creating creases. 

In November 2018, I used Marie Kondo's book as my guide while I cleaned my room and de-stashed my fabrics.  The highlighter dress was by then too small in the chest and too high-waisted for me; I felt like a little girl outgrowing her clothes!  It went to the Goodwill thrift store, and I hoped its next owner would enjoy it. 

Then, in January 2020, I went to Red Fox Vintage to noodle about and look at things, and imagine my delight to see my highlighter dress in the wild!  Some vender had bought it from Goodwill, marked the price up, and was reselling it!  What fun! 

Hello, old friend!

It's Cluny lace, not rickrack.
