Today I'm sharing The Date Night Dress by April Rhodes. Man, do I love this dress. It's so easy to put together and looks super sassy for date night.
Can you see the slip? You can sew it with the same fabric, a coordinating fabric, or just something really fun to give it that WOW factor! I've also used the slip pattern to make some rad swimsuit coverups!
There are so many things I love about this dress: the sleeves (angelic, right?), the hemline (slight shirttail), the slip worn underneath (hello!), and well, I could go on and on.
I sewed this one with an older Amy Butler rayon print that had been sitting in my stash for probably over a year... and I really feel like this was THE perfect project for it! The only thing I changed about the pattern was that I added three or four rows of shirring to the back of the dress, starting right below the arm holes.
So, go do yourself some selfish sewing today-- I can't wait to see it!
