Vogue Sewing pattern 1699-F5

This Vogue sewing pattern includes 1.5 cm seam allowances unless stated otherwise, so you do not need to add them yourself.

With Vogue Sewing pattern 1699-F5, you can make an elegant women’s dress with a refined silhouette and a feminine feel. The design features a raised empire waistline, a softly gathered bust section, side seam pockets and a centre-back invisible zip. It is a lined dress, giving you a polished finish inside and out.

The pattern comes in an envelope and includes detailed instructions and a size chart to help you work with confidence. Its medium difficulty makes it a good choice if you already have some dressmaking experience and want a project with a more tailored, stylish result.

This dress pattern works beautifully in fluid, non-stretch fabrics. Think of fabric by the metre such as viscose, linen fabric or cotton fabric, or choose another drapey dressmaking fabric that suits the shape of the design. The final look can be classic, smart or more occasion-ready depending on your fabric choice.

If you enjoy sewing garments with neat finishing and thoughtful details, this Vogue pattern gives you a rewarding make with a timeless appeal.
