Check Wessex Dress

Hi Ladies!

I need some help - can anyone make a suggestion on patterns or fabric to use to 'make this look'?

I love the cut of the dress (and found out about it through Royal watching - Kate Middleton wore it). It looks so simple - and so vintage but with an updated fabric - but I'm not even sure where to start looking for the style!

Thanks for any help!

Cheers,

Elizabeth

Hi Elizabeth,

If you get Burdstyle magazine, I would suggest 8/12/ style 133.

Thanks so much, Ladies! These are great idea. I don't get Burda Style magazine - I hadn't heard of it but I'll have to look into it. I actually just bought McCalls 6599 - it hadn't even occurred to em. I think I just like that style!
