Description

Women’s plus size dress sewing pattern available for download. Available in various sizes and is produced by burda style magazine.

Take a page from the 1940s with this flirty dress that looks like a top and skirt. Contrasting colors are beautiful for spring, but it would look so sophisticated in a solid color for a fall cocktail party.
