this is a simple box shift dress. i drafted the pattern myself as a first test for my sloper. the fabric is a rayon challis – wonderful and drapey and perfect for hiding all those little imperfections!

thanks guys! i always liked a boxy dress on me (hides the tummy!) and i’m always a sucker for a little 60’s styling…

i love that 60’s look, and your hair looks lovely.. i like this dress shape, but i can’t pull it off, i look all umpa lumpa in it (but you are rocking it)
