I'm officially in love with this pattern! And that hardly ever happens. I very seldom repeat one. So I can say this is OFFICIALLY my TNT maxi dress/tank dress. I wore this dress (and the other one) and I've received so many compliments!
This time I made the version with the the godet. I made it in Stretch Rayon Blend Jersey Knit Stripes Heather/Light Blue/Lavender and it's 85% Rayon/18% Polyester/ 2% Lycra. I love this fabric because it's very lightweight with and amazing drape and it's incredibly flowy!
For the binding, I just used the wrong side of the fabric which is a solid heather grey. I would have loved to have gotten a better stripe match where the godet is sewn but I didn't have enough fabric. But I'm still pleased with it!
I make no promises on whether or not you'll see another!

I don't blame you for making this your TNT Maxi! You look spectacular and so stylish. I love when a simple style can pack so much punch. And I your necklace! It's a piece of art on it's own!

The godet makes this dress extra fun, plus easy to move in!

This is in reply to Mom's question--the pattern is called "The Mission Maxi."
I love that you love this one...I think you have shown its versatility to perfection!
I was very intrigued by EveS' version on PR, and you have convinced me that I do need this pattern. Thanks!
Great dress, and I love your hair like that! You look fantastic.
Ok! I thougth that was a reference to the italian label, specialized in stripes... Great dress!
You do look fantastic in this dress. Seems like the perfect easy summer dress.
I love the godet in the back, and your necklace is amazing.

WOW! I love this dress. The godet is pure genius. And actually, I like that the stripes don't match. I think it highlights the awesomeness of the godet!
