I recently rediscovered the Lara dress by Schnittchen patterns. I loved this pattern when it was released in our winter a few years back. It never managed to get onto my 'to sew' list until I found it again recently. I love un-fussy designs with unique details similar to the garments seen at COS.
My dress is a size 42 in cotton with some spandex which I purchased from FabricBox. It required approx 2.7 meters. It would have been less if I didn't match the print. This fabric was not the best choice for this pattern! Schnittchen patterns recommend linen fabrics, lightweight cotton or poly viscose.
Changes to the pattern:
,I removed with 2 inches removed from the center back to give myself a bit more shape.
,Shock horror: I removed the pockets! I was worried the fabric would collapse from the extra weight.
,I added a tie belt which is sewn at the centre back.
,I cut 3 inches off the hem (next time i'd do a bit more!)
,Hand sewed the front opening closed from the underside.
On a plainer fabric a button would make a nice feature. I normally need a full bust adjustment but I didn't with this pattern because of the generous ease. I added an extra inch to my sleeves as I have strong arms!
