I made the wrap version, with the short sleeves and the belt.
The fabric is a cotton voile from Westminster Fibers, in a colorway that is ideal for someone with three black and white dogs.
I thought the fabric would be too sheer to wear without a slip or lining but it turns it's absolutely fine without, which is great. This a perfect summer dress.

A bit different to my normal style of photography (whatever that might be). Shot at golden hour and you can see the sun shining on the pavement at top left.
Definitely press L to view this best!
Again, another image-only pattern fudging procedure. But dude, crinolines are super easy to whip up. I almost bought a contemporary pattern during one of those 99¢ sales, but it was all just a bunch of rectangular shaped pattern pieces. Seemed a waste.

Does anyone have this pattern? I'm thinking of buying it, but would like to know if anyone has already made something from it--and how good/bad the pattern was.
guys check out my recent favorites! i've just found this great new style of photography, it was kinda strange, with strange concept and strange set up and, even stranger editing. I was surfing through the photo owner's connected accounts then I realized so many people had done this kind. I had thought to myself, oh my god wtf is this why is everyone doing it why am I the only didn't know anything about this yada yada yada but then I found out that it's an actual category called surrealism.
It's cool to know though. Human creativity, as its finest. And mannnnn I'd love to learn how they photoshopped the pictures that way.

I'm a sucker for light (aren't all photographers). Sometimes the subject can be simple, but as long as the light is right, simplicity is just fine! I liked the bright statement of the Anthurium flowers in the red vase in an image otherwise desaturated by light. I don't reach for the little Voigtländer 40mm f/2 lens very often, but it often produces very nice results when I do.

Project Details
Pattern: Simplicity 3686, View A & B
Fabric: Wool blend suiting
Lining: 100% Polyester
Notions: 7" zipper; one 3/8" button; four 5/8 buttons; 1/4" wide bias tape; hem tape
Description: Unlined wide leg trousers with wide contured waistband and button flap pockets. (cuffed hem optional)
I really like this style of pants and to me it's one of the easiest trends of this season. In my opinion, this style looks best when paired with a fitted top. I decided to wear this tailored shirt with them and the cuffs really balance out the legs.
These pants are constructed very basically with a fly front... if you've made pants before, these will not be a problem. I added in 3 1/2" of ease because I wanted a bit of a loose, slouchy look and they are very comfortable. These pants have a great rise which is right below the waist. I love the curved waistband. There was not any gaping and I didn't have to make an alteration to it. Instead of using the fashion fabric on the waistband facing, I used the lining fabric because I didn't want to take a chance that the wool would be itchy. I finished off the facings with the 1/4" wide bias tape, just like on a lot of RTW trousers.
I didn't like the faux flap back pocket option so I created double welt back pockets and included the pocket bags and all. I used Claire Shaeffer's method from "High-Fashion Sewing Secrets From the World's Best Designers". The front pockets are triangular shaped, button flaps. I love the front pockets. They are the type that extend to the CF which eliminates gaping. Since view A was the cuffed variation, I opted to use this one so I wouldn't have to alter for additional length as I would normally have to do. I added hem tape to my 1 1/2" hem and left them extra long to be worn with heels.
