I fell in love with this dress from Anthropologie, but did not love the price – 300 dollars . So, I made my own version for 25 dollars. The skirt is quite full and the shape is quite similar, but there was little to choose from in terms of fabric. In the end though, I love how it turned out! I added a 5 dollar belt from a second-hand store and am on the lookout for a little black cardigan. I ended up with a ton of fabric left over (I couldn’t remember what size I had used on the pattern, so I went a little big just to be safe) and I think I might make over a chair to go with my desk.


What pattern did you use? It’s beautiful & very well fitted!
What pattern and fabric did you use? I want to make one! Its looks so well made.
Its Simplicity 2444. It’s a Project Runway pattern. I used the same one for the other dress, just with the cape collar. I highly recommend it!
Beautiful! What is the fabric? Is it a cotton? It looks like it has some thickness to it.
It is thick! It’s a cotton twill.
