HI DARLINGS! Can we say yes to the dress? I made this dress using SIMPLICITY #9642 and a beautiful black and pink Rayon Challis FLORAL FABRIC from MELANATED FABRICS. I wanted something fun and flirty and this fabric and pattern combo is exactly that. I have so many prints in my stash that I couldn't decide which one to use for this dress but the pink roses just kept calling my name.


This was also a really quick dress to make, I love a great project that comes together easily. I plan to make this again in a solid and will be wearing this dress all spring and summer long. The bodice front has gathers at the bust and the skirt has princess seams, the ruffles are cut 3 on the fold so you get a nice amount of gathers. I did end up putting 1/4" elastic along the back waist seam because I felt it was too much of a gap.


THE LOOK!














Let me know what you think! Thank you so much for reading.

This DIY dress tutorial for Simplicity Pattern #9642 is such an inspiring quick-sew project for warm seasons. I adore the striking black and pink floral rayon challis fabric, and your practical tweak of adding thin elastic at the back waist solves a common fit gap perfectly. The gathered bust, ruffled skirt and princess seams create a playful, flattering silhouette ideal for spring and summer outings. Could you share more fabric and solid color recommendations for recreating this dress in a follow-up post? --times table
