Silversaga Patterns Sleeveless Eleonora Dress

Buy the Sleeveless Eleonora Dress sewing pattern from Silversaga Patterns. Eleonora is a romantic summer dress inspired by vintage chemise dresses, but with a modern take making it more suitable for everyday wear. The dress is adjustable with ties and elastic at both the neckline and waist, and the pattern comes with A/B and C/D/E cup size options. Eleonora features gathered shoulder straps with an elasticated channel and ruffles. The gathered midi skirt has four panels and hidden pockets, and is finished with a deep hem.

View B: The bodice has an additional elastic channel under the bust.
View C: The bodice is cinched in with shirring above the waistline.

Note: The original version of the Eleonora Dress with sleeves is available here. Only the skirt, pocket and tie pieces are the same. The bodice of the sleeveless version has been completely reworked and retested to fit well without sleeves.
