From Dress to Shirt (or Smock?)

Had this dress for a few years, never wore it as a dress. I love the pattern (I so rarely wear things with a pattern). I did not want to give it up so I transformed it, chopped off the bottom and made it into a long wrap shirt. But now I have a fear of it looking to smock like? What do you think?

me like! very unique idea-- looks good as a shirt. perfect length, nice wraparound, cool neck cut. way to go!!

I actually like it alot. Esp the neck part. I think it might be a little too long though, or needs to be wrapped tighter at the bottom. Other than that, it's nice!

Did you sew it yourself?

i am looking at it again... the only thing that bugs me a little is that the bottom looks a little too "a line".... i'd prefer it tighter to the body, the length would look better that way.

kudos to your creativity--- i would not think of how an old item could be new and improved!
