Minimal, sleek and feminine, the
tuxedo dress looks like a garment stolen from a man's closet and this is the beauty of this design. It's both minimalist and sexy. It looks like the perfect summer dress to me. You can wear it when you're in a rush and still have a distinctive, contemporary style.
I just found a couple of patterns (
white,
black) that are perfect to obtain this look. They are ready to sew, but you can also make some alteration to them. Make it sleeveless and take down the neckline a bit if you want it to look more like
Phillip Lim's vest dress Have fun sewing!
