Sew Over It Estelle Dress

Buy the Estelle Dress sewing pattern from Sew Over It. Sew a jersey dress with a difference! This knit dress with its cleverly constructed tie detail is super comfortable to wear yet incredibly stylish.

Estelle hits at the on-trend midaxi length (between a midi and a maxi) and looks great with heels, boots or trainers, with or without tights, so you can wear it all year round! Choose between short, 3/4 length or long sleeves and make Estelle with a straight or a slightly wider skirt with side splits. The pattern includes two different split notches, so you can make them higher or lower, depending on your preference.

This is a dress that can look casual, sophisticated or sassy, depending on the fabric you choose. Make Estelle in a viscose or bamboo jersey for a slinky version that hugs the body, or pick a light cotton jersey for an everyday dress that can be elevated with just a change of footwear. Use a sparkly jersey or a stretch velvet to make a stunning party dress for the festive season or a winter wedding!
