Crossover V-neck Dress

Crossover V-neck Dress

A dress with and overlap front and wide skirt should not be missing in your handmade retro wardrobe. This dress is very feminine with its gathered front and back, slightly waistband with ties and wrap neckline. The skirt is flared and you can choose between fitted or flared sleeves that reach just above the elbow. In the tutorial I explain step by step how to make 3 versions of this dress (https://elizabethsweetwater.weebly.com/crossover-v...), there is also a youtube video available. Also keep an eye on our social media, where we show you how to adapt this pattern into a jumpsuit. Suitable fabrics are bi-stretch cotton or viscose single jersey, french terry, punta and scuba crepe. Before you start, check the size chart for the correct size.
