Introducing a sophisticated women's midi dress sewing pattern featuring a distinctive asymmetrical collar, long sleeves with contrasting cuffs, and a graceful fit-and-flare silhouette.
This elegant midi dress is perfect for various occasions, offering both comfort and style:
Silhouette: a flattering fit-and-flare silhouette: a bodice shaped with princess seams joined at the waist to a flared midi skirt.
Neckline & Collar: Round neckline with an asymmetrical flat collar whose ends overlap at the front, cut from a contrasting or complementary knit and finished inside with neckline facings.
Closure: Invisible zipper in the center back seam, set just below the neckline.
Sleeves: Long set-in sleeves ending in folded cuffs cut from the contrasting or complementary fabric.
Waist: A waist seam at the natural waistline accentuates the figure.
Hem: The skirt falls to a midi length, offering elegant movement and versatile styling.
Intermediate. Requires confident sewing with knit fabrics, precise collar construction, and invisible zipper insertion.
For optimal drape and comfort, select knit fabrics with a low degree of stretch, in contrasting or related colours for the collar and cuffs:
If the patterns have a double contour, seam allowances are included. If the contour is single, the patterns do not include seam allowances. Seam allowances: all seams – 1 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!
Tip: Knit fabric pieces are stitched with a special elastic or narrow zigzag stitch. The hem allowance is topstitched with a twin needle or on a coverstitch machine to maintain elasticity. You can also stitch pieces directly on a 3- or 4-thread overlocker.
