Named Ilma Smock Dress and Top

Buy the Ilma Smock Dress and Top sewing pattern from Named. The Ilma pattern includes two variations: an airy off-the-shoulder mini dress, and a cute A-line top. Both variations feature a wavy, tiered hemline and an elasticated neckline. The dress variation has wrist-length puff sleeves with gathered sleeve openings. The top has ruffle shoulder straps. You can also make a sleeveless dress with shoulder straps, or sew the top with puff sleeves and an off-the-shoulder neckline. Both the dress and top are maternity friendly.

Suggested fabrics: Choose a non-stretch, light to medium weight fabric. Depending on the desired result, you can opt for an airy low-drape fabric, such as a light linen or organic cotton, or a more drapey one, like tencel or rayon.

Fabric requirements: The fabric requirements include a 5% allowance for shrinkage. Note that the fabric consumption may be greater for fabrics with a pattern and for fabrics that need to be cut in one direction.
