Ridiculously simple elven gown
I had sheer fabric and nice trim that I wanted to use, so I made this really simple elven dress years ago. Basically it's one large piece of fabric sewn into a tube and gathered at the top, edged with trim and straps added. Beneath the bust the fabric is gathered at the front half and covered with sewn-on trim which is just tied at the back where the fabric is left loose. The fabric is see-through, so some kind of undergarment is required, and the seam is overlong and just the unsewn selvedge, all of which makes it perfectly soft and flowing.
