It features the perfect scoop neckline, finished with a neat facing and simple keyhole fastening at the back neck.
Make the simple sleeveless shell top or shift dress, perfect for beginners, or add pretty frill detail sleeves or wrist length sleeves for cooler days - or a combination of the two! With the Everyday Amazing Shift Dress and Top pattern, you can create styles for the office, weekend, party, meeting, social.
Whatever the occasion, you’ll reach for this pattern time and time again! We designed this pattern to offer a beginner friendly dress pattern with plenty of variations to try as your experience and skills develop. The fit is loose at the waist and hips with all the fitting at the bust. This is a great style to use if you want to try a full bust adjustment for the first time. The soft flutter sleeves offer a chance to practice sewing curved hems. The insructions include a clear step by step guide to making a dart and, as with all MHW patterns, include clear photos, so even the most novice sewer will be able to successfully make their first dress.
