Meet our new go-to sundress pattern!
The Oona Dress is a stylish summer dress that’s super easy to sew. She’s ideal for absolute beginners and incredibly speedy for more experienced sewers.
A sleeveless dress with wide bra-concealing straps, Oona has no closures at all – you just pop it over your head and you’re ready to go! Shaping is added with the choice of a wide elastic at the waist or ties at the back.
The neckline is finished neatly with a facing, and there are two cheeky side splits to make it easier to move in Oona’s straight skirt. And if you can’t live without them, we’ve included optional side-seam pockets too.
Oona works beautifully in cotton poplin or lawn, as well as more structured fabrics like linen or a light denim. For a more fluid look you can make her in a viscose, a crepe or a linen viscose. With its minimal seams, the Oona Dress is perfect to showcase a fun print, plus she only needs a maximum of 2.4 metres of fabric!
