From Forget-me-not Patterns:
Adeline is a wrap dress and top pattern designed for woven fabrics. Featuring dramatic diagonal pleats in the front and back, this is a wrap dress with a twist.
Choose your level of detail, with either a shawl collar or a plain neckline. The sleeves come in short and 3/4 length, and can be plain, or pleated. Make the knee-length dress (which includes the option of in-seam pockets), or go for the top view with a peplum.
The tie closure makes it easy to wear and easy to sew - no buttons or zips! The detailed instructions will walk you through every step to a beautiful finish.
Your fabric choice will make all the difference. Go for an understated look with chambray or linen, or bring out the elegance with a flowing rayon or silk.
Available in bust sizes 28-48" (73-123 cm). See our sizing page for our sizing charts and additional information.
