MY DIY STYLE

FASHION SEWING MY INSPIRED BLACK COCKTAIL DRESS

Also, a pat on the back for me, because I made this dress with fabric from my fabric stash! NO NEW FABRIC was purchased to make this dress! This is no small feat for me because I could be over run with fabric at my house (which I am) but I will still, STILL go out and buy more fabric when I get ready to make something new. This sheer black fabric had been in my stash for years before I would figure out what to do with it.

A simple black cocktail dress is a wardrobe staple whether you buy one or sew one yourself. Scroll down below to see and shop the sewing pattern I used to make mine!

The Sewing Pattern I Used

The dress (above) was the inspiration for mine. This dress was a pattern hack using McCall's M6118, I basically just made the dress into 2 layers and added 8 inches in length to the sheer fabric portion. THAT'S IT.
