Sew La Di Da Vintage Sweetheart Dress

Sew La Di Da Vintage

£12.00 – £19.00

Buy the Sweetheart Dress sewing pattern from Sew La Di Da Vintage. Sweetheart embodies true elegance – stylish, graceful, and ingeniously simple! This fabulous sleeved dress gives you a choice of 2 necklines – sweetheart or square – and enhances your waist and celebrates your curves with a flared skirt. Sweetheart’s princess line panels give the illusion of an hourglass figure, are easy to sew, and far more comfortable to wear than a girdle! The generous three quarter length sleeve can be worn as is, taken in slightly for a more fitted version, or shortened or lengthened according to your preference.

Sweetheart rocks large novelty prints and polka dots for a smokin’ hot rockabilly vibe, or looks elegant and sophisticated in muted satins, florals, or brocades. The square neckline lends itself to more casual styles too. Why not try a thicker material, such as wool, for a warmer winter dress with a difference?

Like Rose, Sweetheart even makes a beautiful wedding dress – try embellishing the neckline and making the sleeve in lace for a touch of retro glamour.
