  • Following on from my popular posts featuring all the button down shirt and blouse patterns and woven tops that I’ve made over the years, I wanted to do a similar thing with all the different dress sewing patterns.
    There are hundreds, if not a thousand, different dress sewing patterns and this is by no means a full guide. Instead I have grouped together the dresses I have made for myself along with the styles we have featured in Sewing Society kits in the past. I hope that is gives you an idea of what a finished garment can look like compared to a technical drawing and how different fabrics hang and drape when stitched up.
    In this video I chat through the styles and you can find pinks to the patterns in this corresponding blog post.

    Beautiful dresses and they are all loking nice on you. Can you please make a video for women at 60 and maybe for women with glasses. It is very difficult to find a good style and pattern at that age.

    So good to see the actual dresses and to see them on you. Really enjoyed this video

    Such beautiful fabrics and there is a theme and style to your dresses that suits you so well Lauren. I've tried some of these patterns through the Sewing Society kits and on my own. Unfortunately, the looser, kind of baggy styles with elastic or ties at the waist just don't look good on me. I'm short with a solid build, so they make me look heavier than I am. I'm hoping the trend for next year will include some more fitted dresses and tops with less volume. This whole series of videos have been so helpful. Thanks for doing them!

    The Closet Core Nicks dress looks much nicer in reality than the drawing depicts it on the pattern packet; I guess part of this sewing journey is understanding the styles that are drawn. I like your short and long versions.

    Another really good video, thanks Lauren. I'm not a great dress wearer but am increasingly trying to make some. Great to see the different looks. I prefer a more fitted style and loved the Stasia jersey dress. Looks like secret pyjamas ☺️

    Really enjoyed this vlog too, so helpful to see the dresses made up. Love the Nicks & have made 2 that look totally different bx of fabrics & colour. My Taika also came out with bodice too long so my daughter benefitted from that mistake😂 Named drafts for taller figures than mine.

    Thanks Lauren , a really great presentation of a wide variety of dress styles. As you said , it makes such a difference seeing the styles on a
    model and made in a variety of different fabrics, I find these sort of videos extremely helpful.

    Your dresses are beautiful, especially on you. Have you ever heard of the Cinema dress as I’ve got this pattern but nobody seems to have made it. It has been around a number of years and seeing your vlog reminded me of it. You have some lovely dresses in your wardrobe, beautifully made. 😊

    Love the Named Kerttu dress. I’m going to have to pick up that pattern. Thanks for sharing these dresses 🤗

    @brenholmes4894 ปีที่แล้ว

    Enjoyable video to watch, thank you. I was particularly interested in your comments regarding the Taika Dress. I have that pattern as well as the fabric to make it up, but I have been concerned about how it might fit me and where to shorten it, as Named Clothing drafts for 5'8", I think, and I'm 5'5". I am used to making pattern alterations, but not in terms of the relative proportions with regard to height. I will make a toile, but I do like my toiles to be wearable :-)

    Beautiful dresses and fabrics. I’ve got 2m of the navy blooms and 3 of the cream to make something beautiful with but I can’t make my mind up what to make as it’s the most precious fabric, I want to get it just right!

      Fyi There are a number of us in the US who get fabric from G&G, including the Sewing Society kits. My first purchase was very reasonable Liberty cotton.😊
