Sew Over It Antonia Dress

Buy the Antonia Dress sewing pattern from Sew Over It. Antonia features a tea dress style lined bodice with darted bust panels and an under-bust panel at the front, and waist darts at the back. The beautiful sleeves are gathered into a deep cuff with a double button closure, and the dress closes with an invisible zip on the side. There are two skirt options: a simple gathered midi skirt, or a cute mini skirt with two gathered tiers.

Make Antonia in viscose or crepe for a soft dress, ideal for the office. Or opt for velvet or something sparkly for the perfect party dress!
