THE STAPLE DRESS : LIBERTY MIDNIGHT

The Staple Dress by April Rhodes
Liberty of London Tana Lawn in Midnight

It doesn’t get much easier than The Staple Dress, so fabric choice makes all the difference here. I prefer this simple style with a lightweight fabric like my first one in voile or Liberty Tana Lawn. I also saw a sweet version that Adrienne made last week using the new Cotton + Steel Rayon and it was amazing.

With just two main pieces and some bias trim this whips up very quickly. For me, the shirring is a must to add shape but adding a belt is another easy option.

The pattern has ‘optional’ side seam pockets but pockets are essential in my world.
