Straps: Delicate spaghetti straps provide a minimalist and sophisticated shoulder line.

Back: Features a subtle V-shaped neckline at the back, also incorporating a sheer insert for cohesive design.

Hem: a simple, straight hemline completes the design.

Level Of Difficulty

Intermediate. Requires proficiency in working with delicate fabrics, attaching sheer inserts, precise bias binding application, and inserting a concealed zipper.

Fabric Recommendations

Choose lightweight, draping fabrics with a smooth finish for the main body, complemented by a sheer fabric for the inserts:

Lightweight dress fabrics from natural or blended fibers (e.g., silk, rayon, tencel, polyester blends)
Crepe de Chine
Organza (for the sheer inserts)

Additional Supplies

Zipper

Sewing Instructions

Stitch the darts on the dress front. Stitch the center back seam.
Attach the inserts to the front and back, placing them right sides together. Press the seam allowances towards the main garment.
Stitch the side seams, leaving an opening for the zipper in the left side seam. Press the zipper seam allowances to the wrong side. Place the zipper under the edges of the opening and stitch so that the teeth are not visible.
Fold the bias binding in half lengthwise, right sides out, and press. Unfold the strip, fold the raw edges towards the fold to the wrong side, and fold the strip along this fold. Trim the seam allowances at the top of the dress and armholes to 0.5 cm. Insert the upper raw edges into the finished neckline edge and topstitch 1 mm from the lower fold.
Bind the armholes with bias binding starting from the side seam, across the back, forming a strap, across the front, and ending at the side seam.
Finish the bottom of the dress with a 1 cm hem.
