Just last week, I showed you this lovely pattern that I ordered from LanetzLiving. I love that pink dress.

And last night, as I was reading the new issue of InStyle magazine, I came across this:

This beauty can be had for a mere $525 from stores that sell Phillip Lim fashions. The differences are minimal (raglan sleeve and French darts in the PL dress vs. cut-on sleeve and bust darts in the Simplicity pattern), the silhouette is the same. Now I'm looking forward to trying that pattern even more. I am definitely making it.

I can't see the photo of the dress
Yeah the styling of the "vintage" patterns is reflected so much in the "new" stuff...its one of the reasons I've been trolling all of the vintage sites buying patterns and capturing details!!!
Over $500! And think of how much better your dress is going to be at a fraction of the cost. Just wows the mind, doesn't it.
This dress will be very cute on you. On me, not so cute. ;o)
Ahhh. I love it. I hope you make your version. greetings. Paco
Good eye! Your version will be just as fabulous as the Phillip Lim dress.
Ooh, I can't wait to see this one made up. So cute!
Wow I can't wait to see it. I have such a hard time with that silhouette although I do love it!
