Crosby bias dress by The Pattern Line

This dartless bias dress is equally chic, effortless, and timeless. It’s suspended from thin spaghetti straps and gently skims your figure, falling to about mid-shin.

This style is designed to be slightly fitted at the bust, with ease at the waist and hip. The sample shown is made from a viscose acetate blend and is half lined.

This pattern can be easily adjusted in length to suit your body proportions and preferences by following the notes on the pattern, made into a mini dress, a floor-length gown, or luxurious sleepwear.

This is the size chart for our pattern. Please check if you are in the size range.

Sewing experience is recommended. You do not have to have experience working with silk or satin, however I recommend having some experience sewing garments using commercial patterns.

Pre-requisites

• Fabric (Suggested fabrics: medium weight fabrics with very good drape without stretch, such as crepe, charmeuse, satin, and crepe de chine in silk, viscose/rayon, acetate blends as well as synthetic blends.)

• About 1/4” thick strips of light weight knit fusible for neckline stabilization
