Dress with seam below the bust sewing pattern for women — Dress 252

Dress 252 is a digital sewing pattern for women from the Moldey catalog: dress with seam below the bust.
Dress with wide straps and a straight neckline, with a broad cutout just below the bust that shows a strip of skin, followed by a wide contrast band at the waist and a straight skirt to the knee. The design relies on clearly separated blocks of color between the bodice, the band and the skirt.
It works best in a full-bodied woven fabric such as gabardine or crepe, which holds the cutout without opening or distorting as you move. Reinforce the seam below the bust with piping or interfacing so it keeps its shape.
Recommended fabrics: Crepe, Gabardine and Bengaline.
