Pamela's Patterns - Softly Pleated Dress #115

The Softly Pleated Dress Is a feminine and figure flattering style that gives a nice waistline illusion. "Hides any hip and tummy "scallops." This style is a lesson in proportion. The dress looks great on a wide variety of figures when the waistline, soft pleats and skirt width are in the proper places. Pamela's Patterns will show you how it's accomplished! The neckline features a choice of high scoop or square styles. Multiple sleeve options, including cap, three quarter, long and ruched make this dress seasonless. Made from a knit fabric, it is easy and fast to construct on a sewing machine or serger.

Suggested Fabric: Good quality knit fabric including polyester, rayon, blends with lycra, ponte or sweater knits.

Fabric Required: 2 1/3 yards of 60" wide fabric for all sizes.
