I could make that!
There are quite possibly a million Little Black Dresses out there available - but hey - they are useful!

The ruffle detail is cute but not over the top. The Banana Republic version is a Rayon blend. It took me a while to find a pattern that could make this work.
But I think this McCalls M6024 could work nicely.
As you can see the pattern offers a number of variations. The pattern back shows that the ruffles go the whole way around the neckline - and you might like this more than the original version - but with some crafty measuring and altering of length you could easily make it the same at the Banana Republic version. A devolumed flutter sleeve like in view A and a No-Frill skirt - like in View C - and you'll have yourself a pretty similar cute LBD.
