Eva Dress #3


 

A late evening sewing on Friday, saw me finish the first garment from my #summerofbasics2019 challenge.

This is the third version of Tessuti Fabrics Eva Dress pattern I have made. See here and here for the others. The instructions are very clear, the finishing details - binding, topstitching, lantern skirt and pocket make this simple dress rather elegant and cool for summer.  I made version A, which is meant to have sleeves, but I omit them.  This is the XS with no adjustments.

After a couple of washes, the linen will soften a little more and it will hang a little more softly in the skirt.  I can't wait for some consistently warm fine weather to wear it now.

  1. This is a lovely dress on you! I hope you will get some summer weather to enjoy wearing it. The color is wonderful. In cooler weather you could layer it , making it almost a year round wardrobe staple.

  2. That colour looks great on you, now that the weather is warming up I'm sure you will get plenty of opportunities to wear your dress.
