    This is a surprisingly flattering dress for how simple it is. I tried it on and it kind of fit like a sack so I took quite a bit of elastic out and it made all the difference. I made it from a heavier woven than suggested but it had a nice drape so it turned out well.

    Great pattern. It was pretty easy to put together and would have been even easier if the fabric had been a little less slippery. I first thought the dress looked a bit nondescript but I got a ton of comments when I wore it and it was sooooo comfy!
    I’ll be making more but next time i’ll do a shallow bust adjustment as there was too much fabric between my bust and shoulders, but that’s just down to my shape.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

  1. When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
  2. Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
  3. When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
  4. You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:
A. Shoulder Breadth

Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.

B. Upper Arm Girth

This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.

C. Bust

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.

D. Waist

This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.

E. Hip

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
