Vogue Sewing pattern 1520-E5

Vogue Sewing pattern 1520-E5 is an elegant dress sewing pattern for women, designed for sizes 40, 42, 44, 46 and 48. If you enjoy a more demanding dressmaking project, this is a strong choice for creating a polished dress with a refined finish.

The pattern comes in an envelope and includes instructions in English and French, plus a size chart to help you find the right fit. It is classed as difficult, so it is best suited to experienced sewers who are comfortable working with more advanced sewing patterns.

Seam allowance of 1.5 cm is included unless stated otherwise, which helps you focus on the construction, shaping and finishing details. For the best result, choose fabric with good drape so the dress falls beautifully and keeps its elegant line.

Depending on the look you want, cotton fabric, linen fabric or viscose fabric by the metre can all work well for this dressmaking project. As with any quality haberdashery project, careful fabric choice will make a real difference to the final result.

If you are looking for a stylish women’s dress pattern with a professional feel, Vogue 1520-E5 gives you a versatile starting point for a dress you can make your own.
