The dress today features a bateau neckline, 3/4 sleeves, A line skirt with center front box pleat and below the knee length. The front bodice darts have been moved to make a Y shaped detail to add some structure to the whole look. This is a modest design that is suitable for almost any kinds of occasion – from work to dinner date. Feel free to use any fabric you like, because each will give you a different delight.
I personally love the A line skirts, because it helps hide my narrow hips and balance with the heavy top while not undermining my height (you know I’m short, just 1.55m). It is also great when you make it with flowy fabric – imagine how it moves when you walk, so feminine and sweet! I have quite some simple A line skirt dresses, so this time I am adding a center front pleat. Although it will not affect much if you sew the dress with prints, but if you sew the dress with solid color, it will become a nice detail.
As usual, the dress 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!
