Description
Introducing a versatile sewing pattern offering two key styles: a low-waisted dress with a gathered skirt, and a waist-length top. With four bodice and four sleeve options to mix and match, you can create a piece that suits your style—whether you prefer a sleeveless version with neat inside armhole binding or a more classic sleeve.
Choose between a “V” neck or a collar, and finish it off with your preferred front opening—buttons, button and loop fastening, or a soft tie front. The dress falls to mid-calf and includes discreet inseam pockets for added practicality. A small bust dart adds gentle shaping without over-complicating the fit.
Whether you're after a relaxed everyday piece or something with a touch of vintage charm, this pattern offers plenty of scope for personal touches.
Recommended fabric
Cotton, rayon, crepe or a washed linen
