I am Shérazade, a dress for warm sunny days. I have a V-neckline on the front and at the back, as well as oblique seams to assemble the skirt to the bodice. All those details give me a very graphic feel. I have short sleeves and in-seam pockets on the skirt. I am so comfortable, I will be your ally all summer long.
PAPER PATTERN
All seam allowances are included in the pattern.
The pattern is enclosed in an envelope. It contains the sewing pattern along with a step-by-step illustrated explanation guide.
The different pieces overlap with each other so you will need to trace the pattern on paper. If you prefer a ready-to-cut pattern, try the pdf version as pieces do not overlap with each other.
