I have an obssession with dresses these days. The summer heat is quickly approaching and nothing beats a dress in the summer. I saw this dress on Neiman Marcus.
I have the NewLook 6980 pattern and already made two dresses from it and knew it was perfect for this dress. I tried finding a similar border fabric but couldn’t. I managed to find a cute viscose/cotton blend for the skirt and used a stretch knit for the top part.
All in all it turned out great and I can’t wait to wear it.
And yes, the picture doesn’t do the dress any kind of justice but it is the best I could do 🙂
I love dresses too, and I love this one a lot kaman …
way to go, u r getting better and better 😉
Thank you. It just needs a nice orange cardigan and a scarf.
I am really bad at shopping, making stuff is so much easier
It’s lovely ma sha Allah! Great for the summer!
Yes, I am already planning to make the shorter version to wear at home
That’s lovely – I’ll keep an eye out for that pattern as I could use a new summer dress (or two) too!
Thank you, I am still looking for different patterns too, and maxi dresses are so in these days
hi love the knock out dress my daughter would love it too might make it thanx for the site
You are welcome
Love the fabric! It is so hard to get great pictures of dresses.
It is almost impossible to get these dresses to hang right for a photo
Looks good! the only difference in the pattern that I can see is the absence of the band under the bust – but a belt there would do the trick! 🙂
