McCall's Sewing pattern 8286 KK

McCall’s Sewing pattern 8286 KK is a women’s dress sewing pattern in sizes 52 to 58. It is a medium-difficulty project and gives you a stylish foundation for making a dress with a flattering fit.

The design features a tie front, a collar and a shaped waist for a feminine silhouette. You can sew it with short sleeves or long sleeves, and choose between a knee-length version and midi lengths with a shaped hem. That makes it a versatile dressmaking pattern you can adapt to suit your style and wardrobe.

This pattern includes 1.5 cm seam allowance unless otherwise stated, so you can start sewing with less prep. Supplied in an envelope with English and French instructions, it is a practical choice if you want to build your sewing skills with a polished dress project.

Choose a fabric with the right drape for the look you want, such as cotton fabric, linen fabric or a soft dressmaking fabric. It is a great pattern for a made-by-you dress that feels considered, wearable and easy to personalise.
