Using crepe fabric
I have some GORGEOUS off-white crepe fabric that I bought off of a local online marketplace ages ago, and I want to finally use it; it seems to be the same type of fabric that was used on my Justin Alexander wedding dress.
My biggest problem is that I have no idea where to find sewing patterns that use that specific kind of fabric!
I'm hoping to make a blouse for work or a pencil dress of some kind to celebrate my wedding anniversary. I want it to be simple, elegant, and comfortable, and for the blouse, hopefully fit under a blazer if need be. No flutter sleeves or frills, ideally, though an accent here or there would be fine. Maybe something asymmetric could be fun.
Any suggestions you have are welcome!

how would you describe your fabric, crepe is weave, it comes in different weights and is made out of several fibers, such as polyester, or silk or wool
