Illustrative of the modern design at its best are the Czechoslovakian and Swedish exhibits, both beautifully organized, finished with exquisite craftsmanship, both done with assured simplicity.
Architect: Antonin Heythum
At the 1939 - 1940 San Francisco Golden Gate International Exposition (World's Fair).
Pattern: Simplicity 2444
Fabric: Tessuti remnant
Notions: invisible zipper & thread
Modifications: extended length by 10cm
Neckline is too wide. I plan to re-draft bodice pattern and bring neckline in 1.3cm on each side.
MISSES’ EVENING DRESS IN TWO LENGTHS AND SASH:
The evening dress with skirt gathered to bodice has back zipper and set-in sleeves. V. 1 & 2 have low round neckline. Regular length V. 1 with ruffle at lower edge has short sleeves and purchased belt. Long length V. 2 & 3 have long sleeves, sash and contrasting skirt. V. 3 has high round neckline and bias roll collar.
I like simplicity, and this photo showcases that. The soft blues and browns in the background. The leading lines created by the barbed wire. The simple rule-of-thirds composition.

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.
Russ Miles and David Dawson came to Skills Matter and gave a one day workshop on how to inject simplicity in software. Working in teams, delegates created their code to navigate a real world AR drone (without crashing it!), learning how to break down a problem and tradeoff for the right values in Architecture, Design and Code. How to create the right number of tests to build the right level of confidence and how to enable Real Application Agility through Simplicity.

Miss Simplicity was produced as an amateur theatrical for the Bank Officers Association at the Tremont Theatre in Boston in 1901. The musical comedy was built around Julian Eltinge (1881–1941) as the ingenue lead.
By the time the New York production was mounted, the show had been rewritten as a vehicle for comedian Frank Daniels (1856–1935) in a role not in the original production. (Eltinge remained in Boston, his role now assumed by a female player.) It toured extensively from September 1901 to February 1902, then played at the Casino Theatre from 10 February to 29 March 1902 for 56 performances before going on tour.

Photographing Simplicity: Day One
I have joined a group dedicated to capturing one simple image a day for the month of December. I thought this was a good way to start, with one of life's simple pleasures, a flavourful clementine from distant Morocco
This image made me think of summer nights. The simplicity of the photo only contribute more to that feeling. I added a little bit of purple color because I thought that it really made the photo aesthetically pleasing.
Simplicity 1803 - OAL Outfit sewalong -Use a cotton stretch fabric of sorts, have no idea of the exact type! I changedthe skirt to a simple A-line with pockets from the pattern, now wish I'd made a pleated skirt as per Lauren's (Lladybird's) tutorial - constructed the skirt before the blog post as released
Posting pattern review and blog post shortly...
For now, this is a dress I have wanted to sew since last summer. Now it is too cold to wear it! Cynthia Rowley for Simplicity pattern 2584. The front slit is insanely low and I will prob. sew in a lace modesty panel for some... you know... modesty.
Here's the pattern review. And it's blogged here.
