If you're up for the challenge, happy sewing. If not, just sit back and admire Janelle wearing it in the photos shared on Instagram!
Think back to the old school, reminisce on how things used to be. Ah yes, the good old days. That's the nostalgia that classic black and white evokes. The same can be said of black and white striped fabric. We'd like to take a moment to look back at the glamorous gown that the beautiful Janelle Monae wore to the 2017 Producer's Guild Awards. Known for wearing black and white, the singer turned actress stunned in a gorgeous black and white "striped mikado strapless gown" from the Carolina Herrera Spring 2017 collection. When we last checked, the gown was priced at $7,290. A lesser known fact, the dress was originally worn by Serena and Venus Williams in Vogue magazine. This according to an article from Vogue.
We found a pattern from Vogue Patterns that could be used to make a similar look. You'd have to alter the skirt portion of the dress so that it's not tapered/fitted. The pattern is only $19.20 and the only other things you'd need is the fabric and thread, well below the $7,290 price tag.
