I am having a style crush on this beauty – a Ruffled Paneled Mini Dress by Minju Kim, a Korean fashion designer. It is a dress in her Spring-Summer 2020 collection. Look how playful it is with contrast yoke and a ruffled flounce back!
I am sharing this newly made pattern inspired by Kim’s design – the Minju ruffled paneled mini dress.
This dress features an slightly above the knee length (I just lengthen it a bit in comparison to the original dress – I know many of you do not want to show off too much legs, of course, if you want it short, just cut off some from the hem). The yoke is made with contrast color. You can experiment with mixing different color combos, or some embroidery decorations – and see how beautiful it may turn out to be.
Below are just some examples of the Minju dress in 3D simulation:
And here’s another color option:
Do you think that this lovely darling is worth a try? Pick up your scissors and start cutting!
The pattern is made using layered PDF, please check for your desired size before printing so you won’t waste your paper. If you still do not know how to print a layered PDF, please check for the instruction here.
You can print this using your home printer and A4/Letter paper. I calculated the printing area so that you will be able to use either type of paper to print the pattern out perfectly. Always print the first page first and check with the test square if you are printing at the right scale before you print out the whole pattern.
Some PC may print smaller than actual size even when you choose 100% scale – I don’t know why this problem exist, but my HP laptop cannot print true to size. I have to scale up to 103% to get the right size. You may need to check with your PC to see if it prints true to size, if not, scale up a bit.
Cutting instruction:
After taping down all the pages following the instruction, the overall layout of the pattern pieces is like this (I chose size L as sample):
The pattern pieces are to be cut as follows:
A. Main Front – cut 1 on fold
B. Front Yoke – cut 1 on fold
C. Main Back – cut 2
D. Back Ruffle – cut 1 on fold
E. Front facing – 1 piece main fabric + 1 piece fusible interfacing
F. Back facing – cut 2 pieces main fabric + 2 pieces fusible interfacing
