The Dallas Woven Shirt and Dress sewing pattern creates a beautifully feminine puff-sleeved shirt or dress with plenty of stylish options. Choose from a high collar or traditional two-piece collar, and enjoy classic details like a front placket with button-and-loop closure and elbow-length puff sleeves gathered into elastic cuffs. A waist tie with belt loops adds shape, while the dress option can include flowing godets for extra movement, along with optional inseam pockets-making this a versatile pattern that can be sewn as a chic shirt or an elegant dress.
