The pattern today is a design similar to the dress worn by Queen Maxima of the Netherlands. It is another dress suitable for work settings. It has all front darts moved to the neckline and made into pleats. The darts at the waist are also made into pleats.
This pattern is a regular fitting one, with added eases as shown in the table below:
Ease around bust | 9.00 cm | 3.54 in |
Ease around waist | 12.00 cm | 4.72 in |
Ease around hips | 10.50 cm | 4.09 in |
Ease around full hips | 7.00 cm | 2.76 in |
Ease around overarm | 12.00 cm | 4.72 in |
Ease around wrist | 12.00 cm | 4.72 in |
The pattern is created in pdf format using A4 paper. I can also create the pattern in other paper sizes (A0 to A4, Letter, Tabloid), so please inform me if you need them.
Print the patterns on A4 paper at actual size/no scaling/100%. Not sure how to print and cut the patterns? Check the guide here.
Do you want to add side seam pockets to the pattern for additional convenience? Just go ahead because it is too easy, just follow the quick instruction here.
Again, happy sewing! I look forward to seeing your masterpiece!

Cutting instruction:
After taping down all the pages following the instruction, the overall layout of the pattern pieces is much like this (the arrangement of pattern pieces will vary a bit with sizes because I want to utilize all space to result in least number of pages):
The cutting instruction is for the garment with facings. If you choose to sew it with bias binding, skip the front facing and back facing pieces. If you choose to sew with bodice lining, skip the facing pieces and cut a set of front and back pieces in lining fabric.
A. Front Skirt - 1pcs
B. Back Skirt - 2pcs
C. Sleeve - 2pcs
D. Front - 1pcs
E. Back - 2pcs
F. Front Facing – 1pcs + Fusible Interfacing – 1pcs
G. Back Facing – 2pcs + Fusible Interfacing – 2pcs

Check for your size in the Size Chart before downloading. Not finding your size? Comment your height, bust – waist – hip measurements in the comment box below and I will send you the custom-made pattern for you as soon as I can!
The dress pattern I share in this post has a straight skirt. If you prefer a pencil design, narrow down the side seams, starting from the fullest part of the hip (marked with notches) down to hemline. It is a really quick modification, mark a point at the hemline at the desired width of skirt hemline and draw a straight line from the hip notch to the marked point. Then redraw the seam allowance and cut the pieces. It is similar to the demonstration below – the red lines are new side lines, the blue lines are new seam allowance lines.
