    Description

    The Apron Dress really does have it all! With its nod to classic workwear and a feminine twist, this pinafore-style design features cross-back straps, a buttoned back pleat, and generously sized front pockets making it as practical as it is charming. It’s an easy sew and an effortless wear, perfect for layering all year round.

    Styled here with the Cuff Top for a timeless, everyday look.

    Suggested Fabrics: 

    Mid weight fabrics such as denim, cotton twill, lightweight canvas.

    Fabric Requirements: 

    140-150 cm fabric width

    XS 1.5 m / S 1.6 m / M 1.7 m / L 1.8 m / XL 2.2 m / 2XL 2.2 m / 3XL 2.3 m

    • Matching thread

    • 0.5 m interfacing

    Sizing: Please refer to the FIND YOUR SIZE tab for detailed sizing information.

    Since it is the skirt, rather than the whole dress, that has to fit your body for this pattern - use your waist and seat measurements when choosing which size to make. 

    The large back pleat is slightly adjustable by moving the placement of the buttons, in case you wish to have the waist width a few centimetres narrower or wider.
