This versatile dress is perfect for creating a chic, comfortable look, ideal for:
Silhouette: A gently fitted A-line silhouette through the bodice and hips, flowing into a graceful flounce at the hem.
Neckline: A classic round jewel neckline offers a clean and sophisticated finish.
Closure: Features a discreet invisible zipper closure at the center back, ensuring a smooth and elegant line.
Sleeves: Short sleeves finished with a neat, turned-up cuff.
Paneling: Defined by elegant vertical panel lines on both the front and back, which contribute to the garment's shaping and integrate seamlessly into the flounce.
Hem: A voluminous flounce creates a dynamic and feminine finish, designed to hit above the knee.
Back: A clean back design with a central seam, housing the invisible zipper, and vertical panel seams for tailored shaping.
Intermediate. Requires skills in sewing curved seams, installing an invisible zipper, and attaching a flounce and cuffs.
Choose lightweight to medium-weight dress fabrics with good drape for the best results:
Women's fitted dress, cut at the waistline. Bodice with princess seams. Skirt with undercuts. Set-in sleeve, long, with a cuff. Round neckline, finished with a facing. Fastens with a concealed zipper in the center back seam.
Fabric recommendations: dress fabrics made of natural or blended fibers. Also needed: fusible interfacing; concealed zipper.
If the patterns have a double contour, they include seam allowances. 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 90cm to 150cm) to determine how much material you will need (don't forget to account for paired and symmetrical pieces). When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match!
