With the Ava summer dress, you’ve added an all-round summer favourite to your pattern stash! You can wear Ava on a summer day, but also at a fancy party or just for work. Ava has a button placket and collar with collar stand. Both front and back are cut above the bust and gathered for a loose fit. The dress is sleeveless, but the folded shoulder trims make sure your shoulders are covered. The belt creates a shaped waist, but you can wear Ava perfectly without it as well. Make this dress in a printed or plain fabric with a nice drape.
This is a paper pattern. The pattern includes a hard copy of the pattern sheet and sewing instructions. The pattern pieces on the pattern sheet are overlapping and printed recto-verso. The pattern is in English, Dutch and French.
The seam allowances are included on the pattern sheet.
