The drawstring back and the draped pocket it gives this dress a true designer look.

This is a slightly oversized style which makes it such a comfortable dress to wear and not to difficult to make.

    I love this unique dress. I made it in a soft silk blend and it looks stunning. It came together beautifully and was a surprisingly easy make, though I had to do a bit of thinking to work out the pocket instructions. I left out the buttoned placket at the front neck and just made a simple round neckline, since I like the unadorned style better. I also made a full bust adjustment, but otherwise no alterations were needed for my usual StyleArc size. I’m already planning my next version!

    I have now made 4 winsome dresses! All in viscose.
    Very flattering , love them all, and perfect for warm weather
    I made them sleeveless and omitted the front opening.
    Made them one size smalller than my measurements suggest, and made some personal fitting – round back, broad back,fba, smaller upper chest.
    To me this pattern is not «win some», rather «win all»

    Love this dress! Made it up In a knit fabric (made it in a size smaller) just to practise before making it up in a woven fabric. Fits well and is just so my style. Very happy!

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.
