Butterick pattern 6586-E5

Butterick pattern 6586-E5 is a dress sewing pattern for women in sizes 40 to 48, designed for a close-fitting, feminine silhouette. The fitted waist, heart-shaped neckline and back invisible zip create a polished look, while the sleeve and length variations give you options to suit different styles and occasions. This is a medium-difficulty sewing pattern, ideal if you already have some experience with dressmaking patterns and want a project with a neat, tailored finish. It works best in dressmaking fabrics that drape well but still hold their shape, helping the design sit smoothly and show off the silhouette. A seam allowance of 1.5 cm is included unless otherwise stated, so you do not need to add it yourself when cutting out. That makes it easier to work accurately and focus on fit and finish. If you are looking for a versatile dress pattern with a feminine shape, Butterick 6586-E5 is a practical choice for sewing a dress you can make feel either smart and elegant or more relaxed, depending on your fabric choice.
