I paid $3.99 for the pattern in September (not the best price they’ve ever had, but still better than $22). I primarily used view C of McCall’s #M7801 but with pieces 5 & 6 from view B for the shoulder flounce. Luckily, my 13 year old sister fit it perfectly, so it became her robe. I originally planned to make this robe for myself, but after cutting out all of the pieces (according to the size that matched my measurements) and starting the bodice construction, I found out that it was just that much too small for a comfortable fit.

Today, I’m going to share the longer than 15 second Instagram Reel version of how I made it, as well as how I was able to make it for less than $10 in total.īe sure to follow me here and on Instagram to follow what I’m working on. Why not infuse some drama into lounge wear?

I’ve loved the costumes from The Phantom of The Opera ever since I saw the remastered version live when it came to Memphis a few years ago.Ī few months ago, I had the idea to make a version of the dressing gown that Christine Daae wears in Act 1 of Phantom. “No, what I love best”, Lotte said “Is when I’m asleep in my bed, and the Angel of Music sings songs in my head” Christine Daae, Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of The OperaĬue the organ overture and chandelier crash.
