Florence Dress and Skirt

This is a classic sundress is perfect for the summer.

It features an open tie-back, a fitted bodice with princess seams and chunky straps, and a flared panelled skirt. This gives you the freedom to adjust your fit easily as the tie-back accommodates your bust with ease, and an elasticated waist at the skirt back allows for comfort. 

Big patch pockets on the skirt give you plenty of space to keep your phone or your purse handy and we all love a pocket. 

It’s designed to be made from cotton and medium weight fabrics that have some structure. Ankara or African wax is ideal as it holds the shape of the skirt perfectly, while also being soft enough and cool enough for a lined bodice. 

The pattern also comes with an alternative skirt you can make for any season.

Florence is not a complicated make, but there are quite a few pattern pieces making it more suitable for an improver beginner. The pattern uses no closures as it features a tie-back and an elasticated back waist, so there are no zips to insert or button holes to make.

Florence comes in sizes 6 - 24.
