Description

This maxi dress is Butterick B5491. It has a fully lined bodice and sewn in bra cups. There is a zipper in the back as well as a tie. I used a synthetic jersey… which is great because it refuses to wrinkle (and I’ve tried.) I have a more detailed description of the project on my blog, if you are interested! www.secondbedroom.blogspot.com

    I have this patten sitting in my collection. Seeing how lovely it looks on you, I think I will make it for myself. Loving the fabric also!

    Looks great! Yay for no-wrinkle fabric, although it certainly making pressing difficult!

      Thanks! Yes – that’s true. Trying to get seams to stay open was a pain. :)
