So easy to just slip on with some cute shoes and jewelry.

I finished this dress just in time to wear to a local fashion show tonight. I love how easy and chic it is, and was a snap to make.

I used Vogue 8915 pattern to make this dress. This is the third time I have made this pattern, and most likely not the last time.

I used this lovely silk charmeuse in a geometric print that I had in my fabric stash from about 4 years ago, purchased at Josephine’s Dry Goods in Portland, OR. I love this print because it is different and artsy without being too crazy. I originally bought it for another Vogue pattern, but decided to not make that one as it is a little dated.

It was a fast and easy pattern to cut out, just a front and back cut on the fold, the sash, and the pockets (I did not do pockets this time).

This is my pattern layout:

I, of course, have pinned some inspiration dresses on Pinterest for dresses like this:

I am excited to slip in this dress and wear it out, hopefully get some good photos of me in it, and maybe a client or two out of it (a sewing client, mind you!).

Cheers!
