Prom 2010 - Simplicity 2440

Project Details:

Pattern: Simplicity 2440, View A

Description: Misses'/Miss Petite Dress sewing pattern in three lengths with skirt variations. Separate patterns included for B, C, D, cup sizes. Fit For Petite.

Pattern Sizing: 4 - 20. I cut the 4 and blended it out to the size 10.

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes, it does.

Fabric: Special Occasion fabrics from Hancock Fabrics.

Were the instructions easy to follow? This instructions weren't really needed. If you've ever made a similar styled dress, you could easily wing it.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? Amber loved this pattern from the moment she flipped through the Simplicity catalog and saw it.

Pattern Alterations or any design changes you made: I made a petite alteration on the bodice. As stated previously, I cut the size 4 in the smallest cup size. I graded out to the size 10 to accommodate her pear shaped figure.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I wouldn't sew it again. The next time Amber needs a dress, I'm sure she'll just pick another pattern. But I do recommend it!
