Find Your Perfect Halter Neck Knee Length Dress in Simple Steps

Okay, so I’ve been wanting to make a halter neck knee-length dress for a while now, and I finally got around to it! I started by picking out the fabric. I went with a really pretty, flowy cotton that I thought would be perfect for summer.

Next, I found a pattern online. It wasn’t exactly what I was looking for, but it was close enough, and I figured I could make some adjustments.

Then came the measuring. I took my bust, waist, and hip measurements and compared them to the pattern’s size chart. I ended up having to blend between a couple of sizes to get the right fit. After that, I carefully cut out all the pattern pieces from my fabric. This part always takes me the longest because I’m so scared of messing up!

Once everything was cut out, I started sewing. First, I sewed the darts on the front and back pieces. Then, I attached the front and back pieces together at the side seams.

The halter neck part was a bit tricky. I had to figure out the right length for the straps so that the dress would fit comfortably and look good. After a bit of trial and error, I finally got it right. I sewed the straps to the front of the dress and then created a casing for them at the back so I could tie them.

Next, I hemmed the bottom of the dress. I decided to do a simple rolled hem to keep the look clean and simple.
