Deidre Dress

NZ$11.50

The Deidre dress is a classic slip dress with a sassy little cowl neckline. The dress is cut on the bias, so it drapes beautifully. The shoulder straps tie up into bows on the shoulder.

My patterns are designed to be super easy for novice sewers. The pattern comes with step-by-step sewing instructions in plain language with pictures, so you don’t get bamboozled with complicated sewing-language! And if you don’t understand anything you can get in contact with me and I’ll explain further – easy!

This pattern is for personal use only. Any use of this pattern with the intention of obtaining a monetary gain must be approved by the owner of this business.

Sizing

The pattern includes sizes 6 - 24. Please note, these are New Zealand sizes, however the instructions include a sizing chart that you can use to figure out which size is best for you if you’re not familiar with New Zealand sizing. The sizing chart is also shown in the second to last picture of the listing.

Fabric requirements

Because the Deidre Dress is cut on the bias, it needs to be made from a light-weight cotton or linen, satin, silk or wool crepe. Satins and silks are tricky to work with because they’re slippery, so if you’re a beginner sewer, I would recommend sticking with the cotton or linen.

See the last picture in the listing for the yardage requirements.
