First time buying a pattern from Pattern Emporium. I enjoyed sewing up this dress. For a first time run, dress turned out nicely. Fit was good, could use minor adjustments but overall a good fit and fun sew. Getting the hang of sewing with knit.
Thank you, Silvia! We're delighted you enjoyed your first Pattern Emporium dress. Happy sewing!
Going Places Dress
This dress makes me feel great every time I put it on.
I never thought I’d feel comfortable in a fitted dress but I took the plunge and made a test fit and fell head over heels in love!!! I made two more straight away and feel like I could wear one everyday!! Absolutely beautiful pattern!!
I just love the Going Places dress. An Audrey Hepburn style boat neckline and that gorgeous strappy back were just impossible to pass up. Plus it’s a PE pattern, so you know it is easy to follow, has tonnes of tips and tricks, and options galore. I wanted to cover my arms without covering the dress, so I made a stretch lace Hello Gorgeous to wear underneath. I’ve also worn a plain black bamboo Keep It Simple Babe underneath. I plan on making many more. If you don’t have this pattern, believe me: you need it!
