Buy the Felicity Dress and Skirt sewing pattern from Jennifer Lauren Handmade, a vintage-inspired dress and skirt with a nod to the 50s! The Felicity Dress has gentle gathers shaping the bodice, all-in-one yoke pockets and your choice of a simple gathered skirt or 3/4 circle skirt. The dress is finished with contrast (or matching) binding on the neckline and armholes and a lapped zip.

The pattern now also includes a FREE expansion pack to turn your dress into a skirt. Go for the circle skirt, or try the gathered version. Both have the ever important all-in-one pocket. Perfect for everyday wear, pair your Felicity Skirt with a Bronte Top for a complete handmade outfit.
