    This was my first make after having not sown for many years, love the dress and found directions easy to understand.
    The facings took a while to get my head around but love the result, really neat and sit well.

    I love this simple but elegant pattern. Summer dress with pockets – bonus!
    First one made in a lightweight denim floral cotton. I found the neckline big enough without the back opening. I added darts in the front and bag for a little shaping.
    Second one made in a stretch floral, so needed to downsize it slightly. Perfect for summer.

    I am between sizes and made the smaller size. My fabric was a drapey loose weave linen that frayed badly and wish I had thought about this before cutting out, seam allowances around the back neck opening are tiny. I should have reinforced the outer fabric around the bottom of the neck opening, this would have made a much neater opening. Also the weight of the pockets pulled down the dress at the sides, and the rocket seams looked stretched and rippled. again I should have used seam tape to reinforce the openings. I ended up removing the pockets altogether. Probably if I had used a firm wave fabric neither of these issues would have occurred.
    I also lengthened the dress by around 7cm. I also changed the neckline making it slightly deeper as I am not keen on clothing being tight around the neck.
    The dress fits me perfectly around the bust and under arms without any alterations and I now have a lovely summer dress albeit without pockets.

    I was not comfortable with fit so took the dress in, added darts in the front and back and put in a back zipper. Did my own pockets the way I use to. It turned our nicely, but as a totally different dress☺️

    I really like Stylearc patterns but I did not find this one true to size. I made a calico toile but took a lot of fabric out of the side seams. Being a woman of a certain age with gravity – affected beasts I had to readjust the bust dart. (Goes with the territory of ageing). It is good pattern for fabrics with interesting patterns and wonderful for cool summer dresses.

    Great pattern, should have been easier to make.
    Instructions not clear re facing and pockets. Went to tutorial, but still not clear as the fabric in tutorial was a dark colour.
    Sewed side seams and pockets differently.

    The dress itself is true to size, no alterations required for me.

    I will sew again, but with my own facing and pocket method.

    Love your patterns but I would not suggest for an inexperienced sewer. Instructions are not straightforward.
    I have been sewing for over 50 years.
    My mum taught me and did 3 years at high school. If you do one thing , improve your Instructions please.

    Lovely dress. True size 10 for me. Made in rayon for the hot days.
    I felt the pattern lacks easier instructions.
    The interface instructions could be so much easier if the side seams were not sewn together first. YouTube had a far simplier way to attach the interface.
    I would make it again – but differently.

    Excellent basic shift pattern. I made one in cotton lawn and one in rayon. I modified pattern by omitting button opening and making a 3cm wide facing for neck, which I topstitched to secure, and made self fabric bias binding for the armholes. I also narrowed the shoulder seams. An accurate size 8 for me. Lovely cool summer dress.

    Only required minor adjustments to shoulder line, bust dart size and placement along with small armhole adjustment. Altered neck and sleeve facing to style more familiar with and ease of application. Post adjustments, the dress has a great line and hangs lovely. Extended skirt length too.

    I love the style but found the directions rather lacking and included simple mistakes that should have been picked up in proof reading the pattern.

    The instructions for handling the facings was totally inadequate. Three steps were provided in the pattern, against 16 steps in your blog post on the same subject.

    There is a contradiction in your instructions on the placement of the loop. The written instructions say right side and your diagram says left side.

    The fit is good, but as mentioned in other reviews above, more thought needs to be given to larger sizes. The bust dart in my size (22) is angled no where near my bust point.

    I will make this pattern again, and expect that now I have found complete instructions, it will be a better experience next time.

    A nice fitting dress. I am 6’ tall so, as usual, had to lower bust darts and add length throughout, but the sizing seems true. I also made it more Aline. But a nice pattern I can use for linen and cotton the summer too, I made it in wool. Will get a lot of use out of it! Facings tricky, but helps to look at tutorial here on their website.

    Love this dress! Such a simple style yet lovely subtle shaping so it doesn’t look like a sack. The all in one facing was a bit challenging, despite the illustrations in the instructions, but I worked it out eventually. Will definitely make again.

    This would have to be my new favorite dress pattern. So far I have made 3 of them and they are super easy to make. I have varied the pattern each time once with no pockets and once with no back opening and once as the pattern shows. Absolutely love it

    This may fit in smaller sizes, but the larger sizes are not graded properly. The shoulders are too wide and the darts too short for a wider body. When a woman grows, her shoulders do not.

    I’ve made 15 June Sheath dresses!! Absolutely love this pattern. Finally mastered the interfacings. I’ve also simplified the side seam pockets. I can make this dress off by heart now without using the pattern. Love, love, love it!

    Absolutely love the fit, needed no alterations (which is ALWAYS a plus for me!) However, even after sewing for MANY years, the facings gave me some difficulty. It turned out fine, but there was definitely a struggle along the way. Also, do not like the way the pockets were constructed, so will do them my own way next time. Will definitely make the dress again.

    This is a great basic pattern! Check your head circumference to see if adding the closure slit and button are needed at the back. It is cute, but not everyone is a fan of back of neck buttons. You could also do ties, though. Pattern design and instructions worked well for me. I made this in a bold print and hope to use this design more in future. It is well drafted.

    I love this pattern and I’ve made it 3 times – two dresses (one lined, one with facings) and a tunic top. Each time I have completed the shoulder seams differently as I can’t for the life of me figure out how to turn the shoulders. I would love to see a video tutorial on this aspect of the pattern. The fit is great, I’ll be making it again.

    Easy to understand, good sizing, as someone else already said the facing was a bit tricky couldnt understand how to do the shoulder seams,
    Did have to make alterations though as I ordered a size bigger than I needed as most patterns I think come up small.
    I’d order patterns again. Many thanks

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.
