Fibre Mood Doris Dress

Buy the Doris Dress sewing pattern from Fibre Mood. The right dress can make your day, and Doris will give you immaculate style. The statement sleeves of this simple straight dress with a round neckline are sure to turn heads. The sleeves are double layered and the shorter inner sleeve pulls the outer sleeve in, creating a balloon effect. A few other details worth mentioning? Bust darts and a handy slit in the centre back seam for walking comfort. Pop this dress over your head and you’re ready to go! The length is up to you, and the belt is optional.
