Description

This incredibly fun and easily done party dress is all about the inset that you choose for it. We went with gold for a bit of glam, but you can also tone it down with less sparkly options like a cotton trim. This is our little New Year party dress, in case you are still looking for what to wear. You can easily make it in a day or weekend, it is very easy to adjust the fit in the back or sideseam and you for sure will look super glamorous in it!!

Materials

knit, charmeuse, zipper, trim

This dress is wonderful, the brocade trim is really striking, it lifts the dress making it look very rich - although this will also make a lovely summer sun dress too, I think I will need to make two versions – I cannot wait to give it ago! Well done -

way too busy for loads of sewing

I'm not usually one for deep V-necks and loose folds, but I love it anyway! And I'm loving the wide range of sizes.

I can't wait to try this one. Although I love dresses, they usually don't love me back so I think I'll shorten it a bit to make a top.

On a built by wendy kick...

Cute dress, I'm just skeptical about how it will look on more curvy figures (like mine!).

I'm pretty curvy, too, but I think this will be fantastic as a top, because I'm still nursing a baby, and the flowy-open bottom of the dress(that I will make as a top) will be great for hiding what no one needs to see while showing off the parts I like! Great colors on this one, too!!

I love it! I wish I had the exact same colors you used, but I think I can come up with something, I hope by New Years! This pattern is something I could not find in my full closet of Burda Magazines I have been collecting since the 90s, not even in the Italian "La mia Boutique". Thank you and BRAVO!!!

Extraordinary! Never seen such drapery and it seems the pattern is perfect for further alteration. To the scissors, heat up the sewing machine. Summer will come and this dress is mine for the upcoming warm and tender breeze.

i really think this dress is unique and fun, it can give many variations of style by playing with many fabrics.....great job and fun

I can't see myself wearing this dress but it would maybe make a nice top
dairyheir66 Ï Posted 20 January 2008 at 1:00 PM

I love this dress. I'll probably try it as a top first since I don't wear dresses very often even though I love them.
