Hey beautiful people!
You know those patterns that have multiple styles for multiple occasions? This one is it!
The name screams retro, and this pattern looks it! This pattern from Made for Mermaids is a new staple that you can add to your closet! Loungewear, workout wear, casual, date night, etc. I could go on! This pattern has rangeeee, okay?
Nowadays rare are the opportunities that I make multiple items within a testing time frame. This time I was reckless and put aside my school work and other responsibilities to make 6 of these beauties! I have two that still need to be photographed so maybe you will be able to see the others on my Instagram!
Time for the deets!

Fabric Choices
I used DBP, Cotton Lycra, and Athletic Knit for my versions. I made a Maxi with side slits and three crops. The ones not pictured are crop(yes, another one), midi, & mini length. Oh, and thick binding for all because it’s my favorite! I hope to get to taking pictures soon of those beauties!
This pattern is quick to whip up which made it easier to make so many! I am a size Yellow in bust and waist and a Orange in hips. I was able to get a maxi length in two yards of the Cotton Lycra and the crops came from scrap fabrics in my stash. So if you have some fabrics that you are not sure what to do with, try out a Goldie in a crop or top length!
