Simplcity 5440


I finally finished and photographed Simplicity 5440, thanks to Jonathan who is visiting this weekend on his way home to Sydney.

I'm not sure I like the shape - it seems a bit too 80s. The puffy sleeve is certainly not me (though that is relatively easy to fix). However, in general, I don't know about the long bodice.

The one thing that is great is the shoulder/neck line. I might use this to adapt the Vogue pattern to fit my shoulders better.

I agree! The neck line is nice, but I am not sure about the v-cut bodice where it joins the skirt. That strikes me as a little 80s too. I think a strait line would look more modern. :)
