Misses Dress: Fitted, straight, above the knee, lined, side front tucks, back zipper and hemline vent.

sizes 8-14

I thought it was a super simple dress to make.

I used a Ponte knit which was a bit outside the square but it seem to work out great.

I deleted the zip, the hem vent and the lining as I used a Ponte knit. I also downsized it to allow for the stretch. I added bows to which are removable to the shoulders as I wanted it to look like a dress I had seen on Stop Staring website. I also took it in a little around the thighs to get a really fitted look. I also made the armholes a bit narrower. It worked out really well.

I will definitely sew something else in this pattern.

This pattern was fun to make up. Instructions clear, fits well and looks great on the body

nine stitches

Wow I tried this pattern last year and it was a disaster. Your version makes me want to try it again. Would never have thought of ponte but love yours...the print and bows are so cute.

Hi mnitts, I noticed a few people did not recommend this pattern. However another member who made it up in a knit was really happy with it also. Very interesting as it is a woven pattern but seems to work out nicely with a knit. Just down size it to allow for the stretch. Ponte is a fabulous fabric. Give it another try...:)

Lovely dress! I was trying to work out where I has seen it before and of course it was on the Tessuti site. Gotta love their fabrics!
