Last maternity piece from me.. a maroon knit maxi dress... I really love this dress, how it drapes & accentuate my baby bump. I wear this to attend a formal dinner event, and love how comfortable i am through out the night.
Some more looks, showing off my baby bump... at 32 weeks. I look soooo big, im still shock/amaze everytime i look at myself on the mirror.
:: Pattern pieces ::
Knit fabric is totally not easy to sew. I love knits and how it feel on my skin, but for me, it was the most difficult fabric to deal with. Luckily, this is a simple pattern and even my stitch got distorted here and there, i still manage to create it the way i like.
Angelina Jolie's red carpet green maternity maxi dress is the inspiration of my dress. She looks absolutely gorgeous!!
I use New Look 6823 Misses Knit Dress pattern.
I choose view C, the sleeveless look, with some changes made. Beside making it longer, i cut a wider lower front piece so i can gathered it along the front empire seam line to make more rooms for my baby bumps. The outcome was not as clean cut as the dress should look, but im glad it turn out ok. Read my pattern review.
This is my last maternity piece. Baby stuffs next!!!! :)
