Description
Mistral is a sophisticated dress that effortlessly bridges casual and formal occasions. This elegant design features a V-neckline and short dolman sleeves for a seamless, comfortable fit. The bodice is cut on the bias and flows gracefully into the skirt, creating a beautiful ruched effect at the waist that enhances the natural drape of the fabric. The neckline is neatly finished with facings, while invisible hems provide a polished final touch. Deceptively simple with only 4 pattern pieces to assemble, this versatile pattern is available in both midi and maxi lengths and works beautifully with both woven fabrics (finished with an invisible zipper) and knits (no zipper required).
- View A is a maxi-length woven dress. It is finished in the back with an invisible zipper.
