Guys remember that fan dress (was it Derek Lam?) in the purple print that we all liked? Kelly Kapoor has worn it in multiple Office episodes! <3

Man, I wish I knew how to sew.

So envious of your mad sewing skillz laurel!

YESSSS oh that is a <3 <3 indeed re Derek Lam dress. Good for her! I'm glad someone admirable and awesome picked it up.
Thersa, I'm a little concerned about the Kors dress -- I like it but it might not define enough. Counting on the sleevelessness of the others to show some proportion, and I might not cut the McCall's one quite as full as it's shown.

Haha don't count my dresses before they're, uh...patched? There are a lot of steps in between here and there....

Laurel, can I commission you to make one of those dresses for me?
― Virginia Plain, Sunday, 8 November 2009 16:55 (fourteen years ago) link
Maybe! I have to get to Thanksgiving weekend before I have time to think about sewing, and then I have to make something for myself, to get my hand in. Which one were you thinking of, Mary?

Newport news as some great stuff - you just have to search a bit. Bonus is that it's pretty cheap.
I have a couple dresses form there.

except i dunno about the triangles over her nether regions...
i got a nice black winter/fall dress at Zara yesterday on supersale (and a new bag on sale elsewhere, whew finally! oh, the organization), but main discovery here is that the only sane time to ever shop at Zara is before 10:30am

Nice dress! I just bought two on ebay, and I've got a few in my modcloth cart.
― kate78, Friday, 19 March 2010 03:19 (fourteen years ago) link
it looks more fitted on me bc i have bigger boobs. i think that model looks like she is playing dress up in her mom's clothes tbh.
oh mannnnn as soon as i can i am gonna be all up in modcloth's shit but atm my buying is strictly work-related :( (justifying this purchase because i got rid of 35 pieces at consignment shop yesterday and also hello new job = new wardrobe amirite???)
― tehresa, Friday, 19 March 2010 03:23 (fourteen years ago) link
It's always the boobs! Haven't wore a button-up shirt in years cos of the girls.
But yeah, new job def = new clothes. I'm selling a buncha crap on ebay and pouring it right back into the wardrobe. Circle of life, really. Wore a great denim shirtdress today that I got for $50 at anthro. Wish I had a pic to post...

do you think it could be styled for work? i will go check that store on the way to my gym that i am pretty sure carries it...
― tehresa, Friday, 19 March 2010 05:14 (fourteen years ago) link
totally! this store sells them with a matching tube top/bandeau, so that would give you back/bust coverage (the back is really low). the straps are really wide so you can wear it like a cap sleeve as well.
― just1n3, Friday, 19 March 2010 05:17 (fourteen years ago) link
Lovely dress, just1n3! Glad you are happy with it.
