The latest round of New Look patterns can be seen
here. We are definitely headed into summer, with most of the patterns being easy dresses, though there are a few wardrobe and skirt patterns, and lots of patterns for children and babies too. I don't usually buy New Look unless I find something fabulous (for some reason their patterns require the most effort for me to fit, and when they cost as much as a Vogue on sale... I go with the Vogue). However, there were a few cute designs this time around:
 |
| New Look 6119 - Not sure how I feel about the pattern, but I think it will be popular . |
 |
| New Look 6120 - I do like the pockets. |
 |
New Look 6122 - Probably the best summer dress pattern; it would be easy
to create a summer wardrobe with all of the variations on the top of the dress. |
 |
| New Look 6123 - Similar to other patterns, but I still like this style. |
So, what do you all think? Are you fans of the new New Looks? Or are you going to stick with the Big4 and magazine patterns for summer sewing?
I have so many patterns already, I could sew for a year and not repeat. So, no I won't be buying any. But that doesn't mean I don't want to, I like 6120 & 6123.
ReplyDeleteJust though I'd mention - New Look is really part of the Big4 - they are Simplicity patterns, produced mainly for the European market.
ReplyDeleteAh, yeah. I know they are by the Simplicity group, I just never think of them as "Big4," dunno why. But yes, you are right, they do come from the Big4.
