Lousy photo warning: I took these in a tearing hurry after work yesterday because I have been very remiss in actually posting my creations on here and on Wardrobe Refashion. Plus I don’t like pictures of myself and (cue sad violins here:) and I am in the second week of the Evil Flu from Hades.
But anyhoo, yesterday was Wear Red Day and since I have very little but want more red in my wardrobe, I made a dress.
I used this 70’s pattern:
Here it is with the jacket I made from this 70’s pattern…
…that has become a favorite. And without the jacket:
This is a very doofy expression and pose but it shows the dress pretty well.The dress is SUPER comfy and the pattern works up very fast (and easy, obviously, since I was sick the entire time I worked on it). Also, I made no muslin and it fits really well. I think vintage patterns fit me better than contemporary ones anyway.
Looks great. Stretch and Sew Patterns are very nice to use.
Looks fantastic. You’ve inspired me to sew a dress in a stretch fabric. Funky boots and belt too.
Tres chic! Looks great on you, and great with the boots!
Thanks, y’all.
Very nice outfit! I like the dress alot.
