I'm on the Maxi dress bandwagon. I have always loved them, but I had convinced myself that my 5'1" frame was a little short and I looked dumpy in a Maxi. I actually love the way this one fits and even more than that I love the color and how easy it was to construct. I will be making this again, or another Maxi, as I am now officially a Maxinista!

Happy Sewing!
Love it! Put it on, put it on!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Faye I will take pics soon, I promise.
DeleteLove the color! There are so many styles of maxi dresses, it's just a matter of finding what's a good fit for you. I know higher or empire waistlines work for me--I may have to try this one--it's stunning, yet simple.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Robin, you are right. I had to get away from making what I say other woman making on their blogs. I have to wear what's flattering on me.
DeleteLovely and I love the color too...2 snaps and a twist :)
ReplyDeleteThanks MAD14kt. I'll take those snaps.
Deletemaybe the Maxi styles makes us 5'1'ers feel taller I can't stop making them lol! I love this dress, now let see the live model lol!

DeleteVery nice! How do you like the dip in the back? Does it provide adequate bra coverage?
ReplyDeleteL, actually I didn't like it at first, but when I put it on there's more than enough coverage for me. I really like how it turned out.
