Fibre Mood Augusta Dress

Buy the Augusta Dress sewing pattern from Fibre Mood. Augusta will no doubt become your new favourite summer dress: ideal for a city trip, a day at the beach, and everything in between! Augusta is oversized and falls to knee length, but you can make it any length you like, or even make Augusta as a blouse. This shirt dress features rolled short sleeves, a collar with a collar band, a concealed button fastening, and side seam pockets. The gathers in the front and back make for a lovely loose fit, perfect for that summer breeze.
