The Sienna Dress is your statement summer dress that's perfect for everything from weddings to days at the beach. Sew it in silk to create a beautiful piece for a smart occasion or a linen for casual daily wearing. It's versatility means you can cover all bases for elegant summer outfits. While it's designed to feel high end, practicality has not been forgotten with side pockets being essential for easy wearing.
The two main areas to focus on with fitting Sienna Dress is the bust and the dress length. The dress should be loosely fitted around the upper bust and will flare out in an A-line shape from there. The instructions will guide you through how to choose your size by sewing a mini toile of the bust facing. The pattern also comes with 3 length versions with marked shorten lines.
