Sew: The Hotness - Simplicity 2580
After my successful sewing of the Vogue 8184 Diane Von Furstenberg style wrap dress with a beautiful black Sew Classics Ponte Roma knit, I immediately thought about doing it again. So, I went to Joann's with the image of making a red wrap.
Clearly, I forgot about my tendency to become uninterested in patterns if I make one right after the other.
So, I set the red knit away for a bit and pondered my choices while flipping through my pattern book. McCalls 240, look F? Well... maybe. But then, my eyes settled on Simplicity 2580.
The result? The Hotness.
Sew: It's a Wrap! - Butterick 5030 Wrap Dress
Wrapping around the female form in a fitting manor to her shape, a wrap dress is supposed feel secure, functional and overall be a complimentary fit. I absolutely love the feeling of comfort, security and style of my Vogue 8184 DVF wrap dress. The front fold overs cover the whole body, allowing the wearer to sit comfortably. Everything works together to create a balanced and successful look.
The wrap dress a la Butterick 5030? Well, that's another story...
