Primrose Dress - Sewing Pattern | Maison Fauve

The PRIMROSE dress  will make you the most beautiful at the party... Twirling thanks to its skater skirt made of panels, it is stunning in the open back version, or more demure in the closed back version. The neckline of the dress is delicately indented. The front of the bust is gathered, and the back is cinched by an elastic slipped into a belt. The remarkable detail of this pretty sewing pattern: the pleated and twisted cuff, like a signature on your hand-sewn creation (this detail is always offered, whether you choose the buttoned cuff finish, or the simplified version cuff without button).

AVAILABLE SIZES: 34 - 52

DIFFICULTY: INTERMEDIATE. The technical points are making the pleated cuff, the tear-proof slit on the buttoned cuff version, making gathers, installing the elastic.
