Shorter lengths for summer?? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I'm thinking about making ruffled harness vests out of a LOT of my dress fabrics for summer wear. It's just too hot for full dresses in summer heat right?? What is your preference for summer wear??

Is there any of my fabrics that you would like to see in this style?

They would be similar to this design of my last hello kitty harness.

I am for either one! I love dresses though (the long length, the tulle, etc), but I like the ruffled harness too!
I like your spring/summer looking fabrics....and I think those would look great!
I like the dots collections, the cherries and I love that turtle fabric too (green/pink)!

I like the idea. It gets very hot here in the summer and I'd be more apt to put her in something cooler

It's a nice alternative Jodi, but I'll stick with the regular dresses.

I prefer the longer dresses. I don't really think Lacy gets much hotter with a dress on..maybe if it was a sweater..but not a dress. Plus I think the dress actually protects her from the heat somewhat as her back is black and would absorb the sunlight. I think the harnesses like that are cute but I'll probably stick with dresses
