It can be found on ebay or etsy, though as you can see, it can be pricey unless you get lucky.

I prefer the colour of the one for sale, the others don't look nearly as sophisitcated I love that no matter what design you are looking at there is always someoneon here that knows where you can get a pattern for it. *used when having photos taken-I must end up looking 20years younger, 20cm taller & 20 kilos lighter, hmm, maybe 20yrs times 2 for that jumpsuit. ------ Blue Mountains, NSW

But I could never help wondering how you managed all that yardage in the loo...

Last year, Anthropology had a skirt in the same style, pencil silhouette with a high, high waist. A textured woven with a bit of Lycra in it, if I remember correctly. (To be worn with a tight-fitting top or chiffon blouse.) I saved the picture (somewhere) and found textured knit fabric at EOS to make my own knock-off. Now that I see the Dior photo, I am re-inspired, especially since I have enough fabric to also make the capelet. Claudia

For the evening look I was thinking of a sheer top. This Dior dress is a perfect inspiration. I am making the look on the far right.: Triangles, another PR member, told me about your link to this dress! ------ Baja Susana www.susansewsdaily.blogspot.com Sewing on the beach, what could be better?
