This is a PDF Sewing Pattern which you will need to print.
Kaori is an elegant maxi dress designed for warm days and balmy summer evenings. The flowing silhouette is complemented by softly gathered raglan sleeves with delicate pleat details that create subtle volume, while gathers at the back and sleeves add gentle movement throughout. A deep neckline finished with eyelets and a tie allows you to adjust the look to suit your style, and the neckline is neatly finished with a facing for a professional finish. Practical side seam pockets complete this beautifully wearable dress, making Kaori just as perfect for a stroll along the beach as an evening spent dining outdoors.
Suggested Fabrics: Kaori shines in fabrics with enough body to support its graceful shape. Stonewashed poplin, paper-touch or nylon-touch poplin, cotton sateen, linen, nylon and taffeta all create a beautifully sculptural silhouette. For a softer, more fluid finish, choose crepe (viscose, polyester or silk), viscose satin or chambray. If you're looking for the perfect balance between structure and drape, seersucker, lyocell and double gauze are excellent choices.
