1960's Orange Silk Dress

This dress was designed for Carlotta Gray by David Kay Mickelsen for Pasadena Playhouse’s production of “A Song at Twilight.”

David chose a beautiful silk/wool blend and a vintage pattern for me to use as a starting point.  I modified the vintage pattern to meet David’s design and Ms. Lawrence’s measurements. Lovely seam lines, dolman sleeves and a matching belt all added to the elegant look.
