Fibre Mood Leanne Dress

Buy the Leanne Dress sewing pattern from Fibre Mood. Hello summer! This dress with narrow shoulder straps is just the thing for hot days and humid evenings. Playful above the knee or glamorous down to the ankle: just choose your perfect length. A summer top – relaxed with a pair of jeans – is another fun option! Leanne adores a summer breeze and looks pretty in a light fabric. With a more structured fabric you gain extra volume and it becomes a real statement piece.

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

– PDF (available to download immediately after purchase). What is a PDF?

– PDF pattern + Printed A0 copy shop (We print out the A0 pattern sheets, but you’ll need to download the digital instructions, as we don’t print these. The PDF files will be emailed immediately after purchase, and the A0 pattern sheets will be dispatched next working day). What is Copy Shop?

Note if purchasing copy shop printing: One of the pattern pieces has been split (to fit on the A0 sheet) and will need to be joined together.

Suggested fabrics: Do you like something simple? With a flowing and supple fabric, Leanne hangs beautifully, giving you a minimalistic and elegant summer dress. Keen to make a statement? A stiffer fabric or fabric with an interesting structure, such as jacquard, poplin, seersucker or dobby gives your dress plenty of volume and will definitely turn heads.
