Dazzling sequin and pearl ornaments add a touch of glamour. A variety of smooth fabrics like Chiffon, Georgette, Organza, Tulle, Satin, Silk, Taffeta and Crepe are best suited for these styles.

Front and Back Pattern

Use a basic dress pattern in size 146 (size 10) as a template. Trace a copy of the front and back pattern up to the waistline. Trim the shoulder 0.7 cm and lower the neckline. Plot the neckline and the collar. Draw the princess seam lines and transfer the intake of the waist darts to the seam lines.

Mark 0.7 cm intake at the back princess seam for a better fit at the armhole. Equalize the seam lengths. Mark the bust dart as pinching amount. Draw a cutting line from the bust dart to the princess seam. Plot the lace collar 2.5 cm wide parallel to the neckline. Mark the lace appliqué on the front pattern.
