Dress Front
I decided to make a fun dress for the summer that would be versatile as well as show a little personality. Alone, it’s great for any daytime summer activity. (For interest I added a folded cascading front center panel and sleeves.) Then, when I added the velveteen jacket and scarf, it becomes a little more dressy for evening, and can easily be worn year round. Plus, for a third look, the dress and scarf, (which can also be worn as a belt), creates an outfit that would look perfect at the office. Overall, I think i’ll get lots of wear from all three pieces. I used Simplicity patterns #2938 & 3634. The scarf was my own pattern.

It is really great, wonderfully accomplished, expresses much individuality. Cheers!
Very clever, very nice looking and wearable. Your design is beautiful and the dress looks to be well made. I like the jacket and scarf which both add to the season-spanning usefulness, as well as diversity in wearing the outfit to different types of events. Thanks for posting it! I especially applaud the contrast/similarity of the diagonal tucks at the neckline with the horizontal ones down the dress front.
Love the detailing. Great fabric choice. Great job!
omg the scarf makes it even better! love it!
Really interesting design features.
