Description
The Azure pattern is like a mini capsule wardrobe in one thoughtful design, offering five stylish views to mix and match. With options for a dress, skirt, and a sleeveless top, you can create coordinated outfits or stand-alone pieces. The semi-fitted bodice features a jewel neckline and back button fastening, with the option to fully line or finish it with an all-in-one facing.
The standout skirt design showcases diagonally gathered panels that add movement and interest, whether worn alone or as part of a flowing tiered dress. View A is a two-tier dress that falls just below the knee, while View B extends to a maxi length with three tiers. View C is a cropped sleeveless top that sits just below the natural waist. Views D and E are tiered skirts with an elasticated back—View D finishing just below the knee, and View E extending to ankle length.
Recommended Fabric
For a more structured look, opt for light to midweight woven fabrics such as linen, cotton poplin, chambray, voile, double gauze, batiste, or classic shirting’s. If you prefer a softer, more fluid silhouette, light to midweight drapey fabrics like rayon challis, viscose, Tencel twill, or silk crepe de chine are ideal choices.
