I am lucky enough to own this very pretty vintage Nelly Don dress (the pictures are from the seller). I really love the way the embroidered vine snakes down the side of the dress, and the pretty little daisy appliques stick out a bit. It would be a really lovely way to embellish a simple sheath: just add some embroidery for the vines and some of the adorable vintage daisy appliques you can find on Etsy.

{100 applique flowers, $4 from Vintage Starr Beads}

I can just see these daisies and bees floating along a pale yellow dress!
