Let's draft together the pattern for this trendy summer dress.
It has a lot of interesting details: the skirt is a flattering A line and has a side slit, bodice has gathers at neckline and puffed sleeve is elasticated.
To draft the pattern, start from a contoured bodice and a matching sleeve.
You can sew the dress in any lightweight fabric: cotton or viscose for an easy to wear option, silk for something a bit more special.
Start from a copy of your basic block and adjust length to 3/4.
Mark the waistline as slash line and cut through it.
Separate bodices and skirts.
On back and front skirt, make sure darts are identical in length and width, then square down from dart apexes.
Cut through the slash lines to manipulate dart volume.
Close waist darts on the skirt and open a matching volume (or more, according to the style you like – more flared skirt or more straight) at hem.
Widen the skirt from side seam also.
Repeat for front skirts with same measurements (the side seams should have matching slope).
