Dovestone Dress - Paper Copy
The Dovestone Dress is a versatile summer maxi / knee length dress; it’s fitted across the bust and then flows loosely to the ground. The maxi dress has a central slit at the front to add a touch of drama and ease of movement, whilst the knee length dress is sewn to the hem.
A long drawstring tie allows the dress to be styled in multiple ways; either tied at the back, or front waist for added silhouette definition.
This is a paper pattern product, consisting of a high quality colour printed instruction booklet and three A0 printed sheets.
