How to Do Fashion No. 6 København Dress

How to Do Fashion

£13.00 – £20.00

Buy the No. 6 København Dress sewing pattern from How to Do Fashion. This late-1950s inspired dress is an absolute favourite. With its defined waistline, low back and pencil skirt, it’s all about celebrating the female form. The pattern has two versions: one classy and one sassy.

Version 1: Dress with a halterneck and bust pleats in the centre front seam. It closes with a zipper at the centre back, and the bodice is fully lined.

Version 2: Dress with a high collar at the front and a low cut back (which still hides your bra strap). The bodice has a princess cut and is fully lined.
