Description

Dress it up or down, this boxy top or dress is going to be an essential wardrobe addition. The front pleat detail is enough to make this design stand out. The simple rouleaux loop-back neck closure reflects the simplicity of the silhouette.

All seam allowances are 1.5cm unless otherwise stated.

Skill level - intermediate.

This PDF pattern is made up of 2 A0 pages and 33 A4 pages.

Fabric suggestions - light to medium weight woven cottons such as poplin, chambray or dress weight denims. Crisp linens, needlecord, lightweight wools. If you are a confident dressmaker you could use Tencel, Tencel linen, and laundered linen.

    Paper vs PDF

    If you order a paper copy you will be sent a printed version of our pattern. If you select PDF, you are purchasing a digital file which will be stored on your account to be downloaded at any time. PDF's will include a tiled, an A0 copy shop file and your instructions. The tiled file can be used on any home printer and stuck together and is compatible with both A4 and US letter paper. Alternatively, you can send off the copy shop file to be printed full size; we can usually recommend someone in your area. If you are in the UK, we would recommend The Fold Line. The instructions can either be printed at home or simply follow along on your computer or phone.
