Lana Road Test

 Lana dress
a Designer Stitch Design



I just had to write a blog on the Lana dress, a Designer Stitch design for knit fabrics. I have been missing dancing Salsa, ever since Covid-19, I haven't been out dancing.

When I saw the Lana dress design, I knew I had to test it and sew one up. What I didn't realize, how special I would feel in this dress.

I made the version with the peplum. I used a light weight scuba knit fabric. I chose this fabric for the print, color, degree of stretch and firmness. The only drawback to this fabric, the wrong side of fabric was white so I had to add a light lining to the peplum. I did sew up a muslin first to get the proper fit. While I didn't add straps, which is an option in the design, I will add clear straps.


This is the perfect dress for any occasion and Holidays. I will probably dress up for Christmas in the Lana dress. aff  http://designerstitch.com/?affiliates=12
