My daughter and I needed some new clothes. We decided to go window shopping on line and pin all of our favorites-"pindowshopping". Then we went and bought fabric and patterns to achieve the looks for less. Checkout our board here. Please join me every Monday (until I get bored) to see me knock-off the latest fashions.
I love a good wrap dress. Figuring flattering and timeless-here are 2 inspirations:
Gap $60 |
I found this pattern: McCalls 6024 $.99
I started w/ view C (the black and white one), but the flounce looked stupid-I looked like a clown and that's just not what I was going for. It might have worked better w/ a thinner fabric, but I picked it all out and and sewed the facing back on w/out the flounce. I've got to say, that I'm pretty pleased w/ the results. The pattern was pretty straight forward, I wouldn't tackle it for your first sewing project, but if you are an intermediate seamstress give it a try. FYI: I added a pleated ruffle to the bottom.
Have you ever worn a wrap dress outside when the breeze blew your dress wide open? EMBARRASSING! Not wanting to flash my local congregation, I took some hot pink satin and made a simple skirt (I made it using this technique here). Also check out the paint on my leg. I didn't notice it until my hubby pointed it out in church. I'm starting a new trend:)
FYI: I'm doing a pleated ruffle skirt lesson for my Sewing 101 on Friday. My sister is at this very minute picking up my new niece in Korea and I want to make here a skirt.To see where I link up or to add your party, please click here.
I so appreciate being featured by:
I love it! I love the color and it looks great on you!

ReplyDeleteI REALLY love your dress! And you look very pretty modeling it! :-)
ReplyDeleteWhere did you find the pattern? I think I need this one. Also, I'd love to know how you did your pleated ruffle, maybe you could do another one of your wonderful how-to's?!?!
I love wrap dresses, but somehow, I don't own any. Lol, definitely designed for slips though.:)
ReplyDeleteAnd the ruffle is amazing.
Huge congrats to your sister!
Very nice dress - I like that you made the coordinating underskirt! Nice work.

ReplyDeleteI was diagnosed of herpes 3 years, and ever since then i have been taking treatment to prevent outbreaks, burning and blisters, but there was no improvement until i came across testimonies of Dr. ebhojie on how he has been curing different people from different diseases all over the world, then i contacted him. After our conversation he sent me the medicine which i took according to his instructions for up to 2 weeks. After completing the medication i went back to my doctor for another test and the virus was all gone and i was completely cured, since then i have not had any signs of outbreak. I'm so filled with joy. With herbal medication Herpes Virus is 100% curable.
