McCall's Sewing pattern 7950 E5

McCall's Sewing pattern 7950 E5 is a versatile dress sewing pattern for women, designed with a close-fitting bodice and a gently flared, gathered skirt. Depending on the version you choose, you can make a dress that feels elegant, playful or easy to wear every day.

This is an easy sewing pattern and is made for straightforward making up. The pattern includes 1.5 cm seam allowance unless otherwise noted, so you do not need to add seam allowance separately.

The design includes shoulder straps and different styling options, including shorter and longer lengths, plus variations with side seam pockets and a front tie in some versions. It is a lovely choice if you enjoy working with fabric by the metre and want a dress with a clear shape and feminine finish.

For the best result, choose a dressmaking fabric with enough body to support the bodice and skirt. Cotton fabric, linen fabric and poplin are all excellent options, especially when you want the gathered skirt to hold its shape nicely.

McCall's Sewing pattern 7950 E5 comes in sizes 40 to 48 and is supplied in an envelope. The pattern booklet is in English and French.
