Pattern Description: Misses Dress

Pattern Sizing:14-22

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Sort of. I used this pattern to create my RTW Knockoff

Were the instructions easy to follow? I didn't really follow them. But I read them and they seemed very straightforward.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I loved the neckline and lace detail

Fabric Used: I used a matte jersey from my stash and some leftover lace from a dress I made for my DD's friend last year.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:I used this pattern to create my inspiration dress. I lined the dress. I deepened or created the deep "V" in the front. Inspiration

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?I LOVE this dress! The final version has a sexiness to it that I might not ordinarily like, but it's not over the top. I will definitely make this agian, perhaps in something really outlandish like GOLD!.
Party!

More to see @ KopyKatKreations


Conclusion: This was a great little dress to make! I would lose my mind if I won a contest. I made this dress so that I could enter in in the PR contest, but I really love how it turned out. I would definitely recommend this darling LBD to anyone wanting to add a little kick to their wardrobe.

Buy this pattern for $14.21  List Price: $18.95   Add to Bag Add to Bag
