I've cut out this fitted dress in Saxe blue ponte roma with long sleeves and maybe attaching a lace collar. [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Ooh I do like the collars. Prefer the second (solid) one but they're both nice & work well on that blue.

Although I wear scarves with dresses I though a pretty collar would be a change.

Prefer the white one. Just lifts the dress a bit.

I prefer the broderie one - lifts the colour a bit more, but both are lovely!

Thanks everyone, the pics of the collars are not shown on my blue ponte. When the collars come in the post I'll put a pic up of them with my fabric. I like the larger one, the Peter Pan collars remind me of my school summer uniform checked dress with white collar and cuffs

@Silver Rose
- maybe consider which collar color is more flattering near your face. Both are beautiful.

I personally prefer the white one, but you could always make them as removable collars and change it up as you feel when you wear it. Widens your options!

Haven't done any sewing yet, waiting for thread which came today.
The collars arrived in the post this morning, here they are on the blue ponte.

Got on fairly well this morning, a whole three hours in the sewing room (aka the dining table). All put away now, lunch eaten and after the washing up is done I'll go for my walk.

Pretty Blue - In the picture with all 3 collars they all are fine with this fabric but I find the top collar the best.
