This is a one-of-a-kind dress made by Kathleen Saviak. Once it sells, it's gone!

Modeled by Samantha, this darling sleeveless dress features a black and white checkered fabric for the gathered skirt, with a black fabric for the sleeveless bodice, and an adorable coordinating button sewn onto the bodice front. The dress is accented with hot pink pleated ribbon trim on the skirt; and is made complete with a hot pink polkadot ribbon waist tie. The bow can be tied in the front, on the side (pictured), or in the back for multiple different looks. The ribbon can even be repurposed as a headband. SEW many options! Closure type is velcro in the back. 

Please note the price reflects a discount due to a couple of minor imperfections, including the alignment being a bit off for the velcro closure in the back (one side extends further than the other). 


Kathleen (Kathi) Saviak was a beloved mom, grandmother, sister, and friend. Kathi grew up in Miami where she developed a passion and talent for sewing. She continued pursuing her interests working at a fabric store for many years. Kathi eventually discovered a love of creating doll clothes; and she sewed many beautiful outfits for her granddaughter. Even after her granddaughter outgrew dolls, Kathi continued with this hobby to keep herself busy when health issues made other activities more difficult. Kathi loved coordinating fabrics to make the perfect outfit.

When Kathi passed away in 2018, she left behind her large collection of doll clothes, each item made with so much love and stored with great care. More than five years later, Kathi’s daughter, Alleen, decided it was time to part with the collection and pass on her mother’s creations to the next generation of doll lovers. We at Sew Stellar Styles were honored when Alleen reached out to us, and we are humbled to play a role in helping her sell the clothes.

It brings great comfort to know that Kathi’s legacy will live on, and her creations will be loved for many more years to come. By purchasing an item made by Kathi, you, too, are helping to honor her legacy.
