New Vogues!!!

The new Vogue patterns are out and I couldn't help taking a peek, although seriously, I don't need any new patterns. Seriously. Oh well, I'll probably get a few of these gorgeous offerings...

Lets start with a few maybes:

This is 1104, and I love the feminine details. I don't usually go for ruffles and bows. Perhaps that is what drew me to these first two dresses. Anyway, I'll have to inspect this pattern and the accompanying instructions before I commit to purchasing it.

1105 is another ultra-feminine style. The only thing I'm not crazy about is the flounce that ends at the front waist. If I can somehow remove it, I'm pretty sure it would be a welcome addition to my collection. Or am I just drawn to it because I'm in love with the color yellow? Hmmm.

I like 1107 but am not sure about it either. It looks like a lot of work to be honest with you.

This is top 8580 which is made for a knit. I'm really liking wide elastic lately - I don't know why - but I love this simple little tunic especially for that reason. Definitely a little shorter, which would make it more of a top and less of a tunic.

This last dress 8576 is by far my favorite. Talk about interesting construction lines! This will definitely be purchased as long as I can raise the center front neckline an inch or two.

They really have a great array of different styles among these new designs. Tell me what you think, did I miss any of your absolute favorites?

I have my skirt completed from the now OOP Vogue 2882, which I'm really pleased with. Hopefully I'll get some pictures taken and posted this evening. Have a great Wednesday!

  2. I love all of the new Vogues. Especially the funky ones...don't remember the designer name, but they're so cool and different. I want the Anna Sui dresses for sure. I'm going to Joann's this weekend and will have to see if they've got any of these in stock. If not, I'll have to wait until the Vogue site puts them on sale (which they seem to do more and more often now).

  3. I absolutely love the last dress! I had a sneak peak myself late last night and knew I had to get that one.

  4. To be honest, out of all the new vogue patterns, the only good one is the 8576. Other styles are really way too funky. Especially the pants... I really wonder what they were thinking.

  6. I love the last dress too. I was thinking rather than raise the neckline it may be nice to insert a piece of nice lace or other similar fabric to fill in that area. To me it kind of looks weird as it is.

  7. Great dresses, but I wonder if you need to purchase them. Most of these styles can be worked from BWOF designs. Vogue patterns are so expensive that I now think twice before buying.

  9. My favorites are the Ralph Rucci dres and pant suit and that lovely 8576 dress. It reminds me some of Victoria Beckham's styles.

  10. I love 1107 and I also like 1108 although I have no idea where I would wear it. I think 1115 is an interesting look and could see it on someone like Diane Keaton but never on myself.

  11. I just love Anna Sui and I usually buy her patterns, even if I never make them. It's a sickness. :D I do like both of those too. LOVE the 8576 dress. It was my favorite of the new ones.

  12. I love 1107 but can't figure out why it takes so much fabric! But I am still dying to make it.
