Madalynne X Simplicity 8435

diy bodysuit Like skinny jeans, bodysuits have unexpectedly become a timeless staple in my wardrobe. I wear them with skirts, shorts, pants, jeans, and even as a layering piece underneath my entire outfit. The Madalynne X Simplicity 8435 bodysuit is just that – your next wardrobe staple. It features a center front snap placket and has the option to be long sleeved or sleeveless, or bikini or thong. Available in sizes XS-XL, it also has an optional snap crotch. I’ve made an 8435 using a tissue thin knit that I wear as pajamas and I’ve made one with a red and blush pink striped knit that looks fantastic with skirts. The placket can be a little tricky to sew (just a lot of steps that have to be super precise), which is why I created this full tutorial on how to put it together. There’s also a tutorial on how to sew the snap crotch closure.
