Have you asked for a 70’s vestal look ? Let me introduce you to LAUREN ! The sewing pattern with multiple combinations : a dress or a blouse, sleeveless, with pretty frill or long sleeves, a defined waist with a link ... or not, to wear in summer 🌞 or winter ❄️. It’s up to you !
Size : 34 to 46 available in 3 statures (1m55 & less, +/- 1m65 and 1m75 & more) and 2 breast cups (A/B or C/D).
Beginner to Intermediate difficulty level : the frill or long sleeves will be new for beginners but no issues if you follow the illustrated step-by-step instructions 😉!
Recommended fabrics : a light-weighted fabric such as a viscose for a fluid version or a cotton batiste or poplin for a slightly more voluminous and airy version. If you have already sewn some (I specify as it is expensive, a little “slippery” to sew BUT with a magnificent style), you can also use a fluid silk type crepe, twill or mousseline/chiffon.
