HI DARLINGS! You guys know I am notorious for modifying a pattern so why wouldn’t I do that with my own SIMPLICITY PATTERNS? lol! I took MY #8221 PATTERN and modified it to create a dress similar to one I got from Zara. That is one of the beauties about sewing, you can see something and make it! I got this awesome Ikat fabric from Michael Levine.
I did some modifications to my pattern which I listed below…
Created side seam pockets
Extended the front button extension by 1/2″ so it would be wider.
Created long sleeves with a cuff and placket (I used a Simplicity shirt pattern for the sleeves)
I added a curved side hem
I drafted big front pockets with flaps
STYLED IT: Celine Sunnies, H&M Rope Necklace, Marshalls Shoes
Traffic Jam 3D is a fun puzzle game where players have to rearrange and arrange cars in a way that clears up traffic. The game helps you get better at thinking quickly, making plans, and remembering how automobiles and trucks move in a short amount of time.
Wow, I love how you personalized the pattern! Those modifications really make the dress unique, especially the big front Geometry Dash pockets and the curved hem. Plus, pairing it with Celine sunnies and that H&M necklace gives it such a chic, effortless vibe—totally inspiring for my next sewing project!
