How do you get the pattern? I love the simplicity of this dress.

@margaret1957: the dress is a simple A line dress. I close the shoulder dart (both front and back), so it create the A line. The fabric is traditional batik from Indonesia. If you want this fabric just message me :)

very very pretty. I’m thinking of making a dress like this, would it also work with wearing a belt at the waist?

Great use of mega mendung! I LOVE it.

I think the fabric sort of makes this dress….It flows just right so it doesn’t look like maternity wear. And the sandals! They elevate this outfit to excellente!
