Sew Over It Isabelle Blouse and Dress

Buy the Isabelle Blouse and Dress sewing pattern from Sew Over It. This easy breezy pattern will slot right into your spring/summer wardrobe. Make Isabelle as a blouse or pick between two stylish dress lengths: mini or midi.

With its beautiful fluted sleeves and loose fit, Isabelle is ideal to wear in the heat. Featuring a gently curved V-shaped neckline, finished with bias binding for a neat look, Isabelle closes with buttons all the way down the front. The raglan sleeves are nice and easy to insert, making Isabelle a great pattern for confident beginners.

Use light fabrics with some float and drape, like crepe, rayon or viscose, to give Isabelle lots of movement. Choose a bold print for a bright summer blouse/dress, or go for a solid colour or muted design for a garment you can easily wear for both work and play!
