Introducing a charming women's sewing pattern for a versatile pinafore dress, distinctive for its gathered side panels and adjustable shoulder straps.
This pinafore dress is designed for comfort and versatile styling, making it an ideal choice for:
Silhouette: a relaxed a-line silhouette, falling to a midi length, designed for comfortable layering.
Bodice & Waist: a bib-front design with a continuous body. Side panels feature an elasticated casing, creating subtle gathers for shape and ease.
Straps: Wide, adjustable shoulder straps designed to cross at the back, fastening with buckles at the front bib.
Pockets: Two large, rounded patch pockets are prominently placed on the front skirt.
Back: a clean, unadorned back panel with the crossed shoulder straps.
Hem: a simple, straight hemline.
Intermediate. Requires skills in working with facings, creating casings for elastic, attaching patch pockets, and securing hardware like buckles.
Choose dress or suiting fabrics that offer good drape and durability:
If the patterns have a double contour, seam allowances are included. If the contour is single, seam allowances are not included. Seam allowances: all seams 1 cm. Front strap edge – 2 cm; Allowance along the upper edge of the pocket – 2 cm. Hem allowance – 2 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can be from 90 cm to 150 cm) to determine how much material you will need (do not forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces). When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match!
