This Simplicity dress is made from a crazy print knit that I purchased at the Sewing Garage Sale earlier this year. I knew I wanted a simple style with no darts to avoid breaking up the already crazy lines on the print. I paired the fabric with some plain black for the neckband and optional tie and there you go - a pretty simple sew.
I don't think I like it with the tie though - it interrupts the print too much I think.
Again, I think it looks better without the tie....
It took me a little while to lay out this simple pattern because I didn't want that large square/triangle looking print to land on a bad spot so I opted to place it along the waistline. Much better than placing on the booty....
That's it for today. I can't look at these pics too long because they make my eyes go crossed with that print!
