This is a digital PDF sewing pattern, not a physical product.
The Petal Dress is a lightly oversized, gathered dress with a dramatic, curved bodice. The sharp points are easy to sew due to the unique, vertically panelled construction of this dress, making this pattern suitable for confident beginners and beyond.
Easy, breezy, and trans-seasonal - the Petal Dress can be easily dressed up or down, and its roomy armscyes leave room for lots of layering (hello puff sleeves, turtlenecks, and baby tees!!!)
