Get shirring with the Cassie Dress!

If you're after a pretty make, our Cassie Dress is for you! With her fully shirred bodice, bound neckline, gathered tier skirt and gently puffed sleeves, Cassie is one for the cottagecore lovers out there. This shirr-tactic dress was previously only available to our Premium Stitch School subscribers, but is now available as a stand-alone PDF pattern!



Choose between two sleeve lengths: just above the elbow, or full length, both styles include an elasticated hem. Cassie is midi length, but you could omit the second skirt tier to make her knee-length, if you prefer. Additional elastic is sewn in at the waist, to ensure your pretty dress maintains its shape.



With no closures and the shirring in the bodice, you get the versatility of a woven fabric, with the comfort of a knit!



Need more help making your shirred dress? We have a step-by-step Cassie Dress Workshop on Stitch School, our online sewing classroom where Becca will take you through every step of making the Cassie Dress, with special focus on the shirring technique.

The Cassie Dress comes in sizes UK 6-30 and the pattern and workshop are aimed at Confident Beginners. We recommend using lightweight woven fabrics such as cotton lawn, cotton voile, viscose, rayon, or crepe.



Watch Lisa and Rosie chat about the class and pattern on YouTube and get inspired by our Cassie Pinterest board.
