I’d really like to make this dress in a sequin/spangle fabric for a black tie wedding. Am I crazy? Can anyone who has made it tell me whether you think it would work? Thanks!

I haven’t made the dress but by looking at it I think it would definitely work. Go for it!

I think it would certainly work in the fabric, but do you REALLY want to work with The Fabric From Hell? Ya wanna know how it earned that name? Read on…

Wow, thank you for that link. I definitely don’t have the patience for that. Sounds like if I am to wear a sequin dress it will be RTW. :)

Yes, I am sure you could use the type of fabric you are wanting to use. Sometimes the simpliest pattern works for the statement type fabrics and this pattern will need very little fitting and fiddling with diificult seams. Good luck!!!
