If you're a fan of retro styles, the first celebrity name that should come to mind is Dita Von Teese. Her wardrobe typically consists of vintage fashion or current styles that are made to look period. Probably the most sought after garment that she's worn is Roland Mouret's Galaxy dress. Not only does this dress give the wearer a feeling of classic Hollywood glamour, but it's designed to enhance a woman's natural cuves. Two patterns are exact replicas of this style - McCall 5269 and Vogue 8280. If you're looking for a new, little black dress that can show off you shape ditch the ready to wear rack and sew your own!

Stacy, I love your articles! I enjoy seeing how to make designer fashions from basic patterns. It's nice to know that with some work we can have high fashion with less expense. Keep up the good work, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with next.
