This is my favorite. Of the five, I love this dress most. The fabric is a very luxe feeling rayon. The skirt is incredibly full and moves beautifully. And, the pockets are deep enough to plunge my hands into or safely hold my phone.

When I showed my mom the pictures of this dress, she told me I look tall. I like that.

The print reminds me of and makes me feel like a butterfly. And, when a girl in a shop stopped me to ask where I'd purchased my dress, my heart fluttered like one.

Simplicity 8701, maxi dress View 3, c. 1978. I wanted this dress to kiss the ground while I wore it, but I will likely bump my hem an inch to prevent any drag on the fabric during future use. And there will be future use. This dress is amazingly comfortable. I felt very glam wearing it. The sewing was simple and very straight-forward.

It does not surprise me one bit that someone asked you where you got it, this is definitely my favorite dress as well! I love the length of it (you do look super tall!) and it has pockets! It suits you perfectly!

Have a nice Women's Day.

You do look really tall! I should really learn how to sew. I'm going to the Dominican Republic next month and it would be fabulous to look so vacationy!

Everything has been so cute and classy. Now you need a cute knit shrug to use with all of the strappy dresses!

Hi Michelle, I love this dress! I saw a few of your other creations on we sew retro. Your holiday outfits are really lovely! I must try and sew up some holiday outfits before I head away this year too. Yours have really turned out great
