Drapey knit top or dress (Moderated by Sharon1952)

Ok, I'm officially impressed by the new campaign or whatever.
Not only is it available online only, it comes with 360 view of the garment!!!

I'm posting the line drawing because I'm not very impressed with the garment itself, just the marketing:

$14.99 or $9.99 for the club members.
I have a feeling this is the new direction...
ETA Knit fabric is one of the options, the pattern is for wovens mostly.

I agree with you about the marketing...did you get the email? I had to check it out.
I don't really like any garment that puts all that fabric right at the hip area (views A & B). I can't see any woman (unless you're supermodel sized) being excited with that style. View C on the other hand is very cute.

I agree, I'm not a fan of this particular design but loved the marketing & am eager to see more!

Oh, man, that design would give you wrinkles and droops decades ahead of your time!

Love the concept, but boy they need to slow that thing down a little--it could make one dizzy very quickly!

Downer alert. Vogue is a day late and a dollar short, in my book. After too many ill drafted patterns and mediocre results in the last decade I can't see spending ten dollars on one of their patterns for the chance of yet another waste of sewing room time. And I can sew up any Vogue pattern, put it on a dress form, spin the form and get the same video. Downer end.

That 360 degree view of the LBD/ crossword puzzle shower curtain was spinning so quickly, watching it gave me vertigo. This time Vogue has really jumped the shark!

No sewing project is ever a complete success nor a total failure.

I guess I'm in the minority here, but I loved all the views and plan to order this pattern.
I thought both dresses would be great easy summer dresses and thought the tunic/capri pant were a great shorts alternative.
FWIW, I am more rectangular shaped with a slightly defined waist, so I feel like the silhouette would be flattering on me. This look might not work on someone more pear shaped.

Not a fan of this style either, but I am interested to see the direction they are going in. I would think that Burda is the major competitor in the download pattern business. It's also an added incentive to join the BMV club. Burda is selling for $5.99 or there about for their patterns, but they are one piece not 4 different pieces in one pattern. Glad I have a laser printer if this is the future!
