Fibre Mood Dora Dress

Buy the Dora Dress sewing pattern from Fibre Mood. The simple cut of this dress shows off the elegant butterfly sleeves. The dress has a standing collar and the zip is beautifully camouflaged in the back seam. Dora always gives it her all in knee, calf and ankle lengths. And that’s with or without the belt to accentuate the waist.

This sewing pattern is available to buy in the following formats:

Suggested fabrics: Both woven and knit fabrics work nicely. However, a fabric with a fluid drape is recommended to make Dora look truly divine. Do you want your sleeves to make a statement? In that case, a stiffer fabric like cotton would be a grand idea.
