As much as I've been enjoying color, I couldn't stay away from black too long.  And as I start thinking about fall clothing, a black jumpsuit was needed.  My previous black jumpsuit made in matte jersey is too big now.  And since I hate alterations more than anything, it made sense to just create a new one for a new season.
I picked McCall's 7203.  My fabric is a black poly crepe that I found at Hancock.  It was mixed in with suiting fabrics.  It has the feel and drape of a 4 ply silk crepe de chine.  It's slightly translucent, but not enough to require lining for this jumpsuit.
For the jumpsuit, I cut the size 12.  It's loose-fitting and has about 4" of ease.  I lengthened the bodice by an inch.  I wanted a little bit of blousing.  And the pants by 3 inches.  These pants are cut short... Keep that in mind if you're tall.  If I make this again, I'll probably add an additional inch or so.
When I bought this pattern, I was most fascinated by it being drafted for medium weight wovens and it has a button front.  I didn't read the description nor did I notice it is dropped waist.  That waist seam was a little lost to me in the print on the envelope cover.  The rise of the pants looked short to me as I was sewing them.  But it's a cute detail.  I'm glad I inadvertently slipped this style in on myself.  Because I probably would've never bought it.   I'd never been a fan of dropped waist styles, but I really like this!
One of the best things about custom sewing your own wardrobe is making every single selection.  For something as simple as this little black jumpsuit, I still didn't want it to be plain.  I used these beautiful black and gold glass buttons from Mood Fabrics that I've had for a while.  They were the perfect way to add a small amount of embellishment and a touch of luxe.
The armholes are finished with a bound facing.  And the pants are tapered with elastic at the ankles.
