Looking for a big collar dress sewing pattern, right on trend?
Lily is a beautiful cocoon shaped dress, with a lovely blouse option featuring an A-line shape. It features as well a long seam running at the back in both versions, two raglan sleeve options (long with cuffs and short), a cute front button placket and its main feature, a fun, original sailor collar ⚓😃
Lily is just the perfect big collar dress for Spring and Summer if you choose fabrics such as chambray or linen; but it also works for colder months when made with denim or baby-needlecord. And you can also choose a different fabric for the big collar.
