Trend Patterns TPC7 Pleated Shoulder Dress

Buy the TPC7 Pleated Shoulder Dress sewing pattern from Trend Patterns. This design was inspired by the big, voluminous sleeves seen on the catwalks in New York, London, Milan and Paris.

You can also follow cut lines on the pattern to make a skirt or a top version. There is a waistband pattern provided (you will need elastic for this). The top is a shorter version of the dress with a double turn on the hem.

Note: Trend Patterns are suited to a more confident maker.
