Suggested fabrics: This dress is a dream to sew with any light/medium weight woven non-stretch fabric such as cotton, satin, cotton poplin, rayon/viscose, crepe and chiffon. The skirt of this dress is not lined, so you will need to make sure the fabric is not too see-through. Alternatively you could line the skirt too.

Fabric requirements: 140-147 cm (55"-58") wide fabric: 3.5 m (3.8 yd) // 132 cm (52") wide fabric: 4 m (4.4 yd).

Most pieces are cut on the fold. The designer recommends using fabric that is at least 140 cm (55") wide. If sewing sizes 16-24, use fabric that is 147 cm (58") wide.

Sizing: UK 6 – 24. Please check the size chart and finished garment measurements.
