New Look 6429 and Simplicity 1699



I loved this New Look pattern so much but shift dresses are so hard to fit me and I just don't feel as comfortable wearing them, so I cut it off at the waist and added the skirt from Simplicity. They went together like they came in the same pattern envelope!


The new look pattern has a large curved dart in the front and I straightened that out. I tried on the bodice and it was too big at the waist so I added another dart in the front and darts in the back.


The fabric is a stretch cotton from S.R. Harris and the lace fabric was from JoAnn, from this year! Both fabrics were so easy to sew, I've already used the leftover lace for another project.
