Open-back dress with embroidered sleeves sewing pattern for women — Dress 18

Dress 18 is a digital sewing pattern for women from the Moldey catalog: open-back dress with embroidered sleeves.
The dress has short sleeves with an openwork embroidered panel, thin straps that cross the back, leaving it bare, and a skirt built in layers with gathers at each tier. The length reaches mid-calf.
Because of the embroidery and the drape of the layers, make it in viscose or rustic cotton for the body and broderie for the embroidered panels, fabrics that match well in weight and texture. Sew the broderie panel over a lining base so it does not show through.
Recommended fabrics: Viscose, Rustic cotton and Broderie anglaise.
