The weather is fickle, but the count down to summer is on. Changing seasons need flexible patterns and I love all of the options of the Collared Shirt Dress that make this the perfect dress for year round wear.
The Collared Shirt Dress is a pattern for woven fabrics that will fit all of your casual, dressy, and business needs. Full collar with button front placket on the bodice, princess seams, back yoke, gathered skirt, and elastic waist; this pattern is figure flattering in sizes XXS-5X. And of course you can't forget the optional pockets, both chest pockets and side seam skirt pockets are included. Mix and match your fabrics, or keep it all in one color to get the exact look that you want.
This pattern includes Layered A0 and A0 Projector Files.
Options:
Cap, 3/4 Length, or Long Sleeve w/ Cuff
Knee Length gathered Skirt in Regular or Full widths
Full Collar or Mandarin Collar
Optional In Seam Skirt Pockets
Optional Chest Pockets with or without Flaps
Optional Sleeve Tabs
Optional Shoulder Tabs
The techniques in this pattern are not 'hard' but they will stretch your sewing abilities if you are a confident beginner. There are video tutorials included in the instructions to walk you through any tricky parts. This is a great pattern for growing becasue you can start simple with no pockets or sleeve cuffs, and slowly work your way up to adding all of the fun details!!!
