Wardrobe Staple {Vogue 9062}

Pattern:  Vogue 9062
Version:  B - the dress
Sizing:  12 to 14
Fabric:  ponte
Notions: button
Instructions:  just fine
Modification:  no sleeve flounce; no lining; fold-over hems; bias neck
Recommend:  five stars

Some dresses deserve to be remade, and Vogue 9062 is simply that dress.  My first dress was made in a blue and white strip ponte that is so comfortable and easy-going.  After wearing it just once, I knew a plain black version would be a wardrobe staple for every occasion (including wearing underneath my Day of the Dead apron).  I made the dress in the same manner as the first; there are no flounces for the sleeve, no lining, a bias finished neckline, and fold-over hems.
