When I wrote the original post about this dress I was sure that I had seen a pattern for that exact dress style and I wanted to direct you to it for your own use. Well, I had to search through my numerous "In The Future" aspirational files to find it. But find it, I did.
This pattern image is from a handout created by Bridget Bradley-Scaife for a course on making the One-Hour Frock, a simple 1920s dress.
For that dress, the pattern piece was used for both front and back. However, in order to emulate Marion Cotillard's dress in Midnight In Paris, you would only use it for the front and create another piece for the back minus the side skirt portions.
The dress is simply stitched together and the side wings are gathered and attached to the bottom of the bodice. Construct a simple middy collar and attach decorative trim.
Now, that's an incredibly easy dress, right?
