pterion 4/14/06This is a lovely dress - the fabric is so beautiful. It looks like you got a great fit. I think I like your version better than the pattern photo!

julieb 4/14/06I love this pattern and now that I have seen how beautifully it makes up in slinky, I may have to make another one. What a lovely dress -- the color is great, too.

elizajo 4/14/06Slinky is my new favorite dressy fabric. Your blue print is gorgeous. But you are right about the weight of it. Even with a two piece dress; if the skirt is long and full, slinky will pull down. I like your idea of using shoulder pads for support.

Peggy L 4/14/06This looks really nice on you!

Cathy Loves Fabric 4/15/06What a pretty dress. Great color too.

jlg 4/15/06This is very becoming on you. The drape of the skirt is beautiful.

Barbara Elfman Bell 4/15/06Gorgeous! I wouldn't have thought to make it in a slinky knit. Great job.

AnneM 4/15/06It looks great on you. I love the print of your fabric, also. I probably need to get this pattern, because it seems to look good on everyone.
