Sew Over It Jemima Jumpsuit and Dress

Buy the Jemima Jumpsuit and Dress sewing pattern from Sew Over It. Jemima features a V-neck at both the front and back with wide bra-covering straps. There are mirrored pleats on the front bodice and trousers/skirt. With no tricky closures, Jemima is shaped with narrow elastic at the back waist only, so you can easily get it on and off whilst keeping the gorgeous pleats flat at the front. The neckline and armholes are finished neatly with an all-in-one facing. Make your outfit casual by wearing Jemima with trainers and a tee underneath, or dress it up with a pair of heels and some statement jewellery.
