Sew on the buttons on the back (alternatively you could have done "button loops" on both edges of the top and use a ribbon to tie it as "laces") Due to the tight nature of this dress design, your doll won't be able to sit in it, but she'll look super cute standing :) If you make this free crochet dress for your American Girl doll or other 18" doll, don't forget to tag me on Instagram : @craftsadore so I can see your makes :)
Minimal Dresses with One Bold Detail : Rather than full drama, 2026 brides are making a statement with one standout element: an open back, a sculptural neckline, a flowy cape, or an unexpected hemline
