The Juliette dress is a romantic peasant dress with long balloon sleeves and a maxi skirt with hidden pockets. The rounded neckline has an elastic channel so that the dress can be worn both off and on the shoulders (breast-feeding friendly!). The voluminous sleeves are gathered into elastic cuffs and has gathers on the sleeve head. The pleats at the waist creates controlled volume over the bust and skirt. The waistband is stitched down and has a tie belt as a unique detail. The center front button placket closes with 18 buttons.

Sewing difficulty
The pattern is suitable for intermediate sewists. You should be able to sew a bias binding channel for the elastic around the neckline, a button placket with button holes, pleats and a waistband. The pockets are optional.

Fabric suggestions
Choose a lightweight fabric with structure such as cotton, cotton voile, linen, linen/viscose blend, linen/cotton blend, cotton/viscose blend. A softer and drapery fabric will give you less volume. The sample is made in a black linen blend, 140 gsm.

Fabric usage
The cutting layout and fabric requirements are based on View A. The layout is designed for fabric 130 cm (51”) wide. The pieces are arranged efficiently to minimize waste, but we recommend buying a little extra fabric to account for shrinkage, print alignment, or cutting adjustments.
