Fibre Mood Pipa Dress

Buy the Pipa Dress sewing pattern from Fibre Mood. Oh Pipa, you were made for summer garden parties! This stylish sundress has a lovely, fitted bodice due to inverted box pleats, with a skirt that drapes gracefully in an A-line towards the hem. Pipa has adjustable shoulder straps and an invisible zip in the side seam. If you feel like the bodice offers enough support, you can even omit the shoulder straps for a stunning corset dress.
