Buy the Colette Dress sewing pattern from Vikisews. Colette is a close-fitting dress. It has an asymmetrical one-shoulder design, with a long sleeve on the left side and an adjustable shoulder strap on the right. The fitted, set-in sleeve is cut on the bias. The dress is designed with an applied bodice piece as an inner layer. The outer layer features a draping detail both on the front and back. The high slit effect is achieved by attaching a separate side front skirt piece to the front. The dress closes with an invisible zipper in the left side seam. Colette is finished with a free-hanging lining and is below mid-calf length.
