Introducing an elegant women's sewing pattern for a long sleeve knit dress featuring a gracefully draped front with gathering and a stylish faux-wrap hemline.
This versatile dress is perfect for various occasions where comfort meets chic style, making it ideal for:
Silhouette: a fitted, knee-length silhouette that gently skims the body, offering both comfort and elegance.
Neckline: a classic scoop neckline provides a soft and flattering frame for the face.
Sleeves: Full-length, set-in sleeves offer comfortable coverage and a streamlined arm line.
Front: Features intricate draping from the shoulder, gathered at the waistline, creating a flattering diagonal movement across the bodice and skirt. The design includes a wrap-style overlay on the skirt.
Back: a clean, unadorned back with a central seam for a tailored fit.
Hem: An asymmetrical, faux-wrap hemline that falls gracefully to just above the knee.
Pockets: Practical in-seam pockets are discreetly integrated into the side seams of the draped front.
Intermediate. Requires experience with sewing knit fabrics, managing gathers and drapes, and assembling multiple contoured panels.
Select knit fabrics with good drape and stretch for the best result:
No additional notions are required.
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: Hem allowance for the garment and sleeve hem – 1.5 cm, along the back neckline of the front piece – 1.5 cm, along the open edge of the flying of the front piece – 1.5 cm. Other seams 0.7 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. When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match! Markings on the patterns are on the right side!
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.
