Top Creations for This Pattern
Description
The Charleston Dress by Hey June Patterns is a pattern that can be altered and customized to your needs or the season of the year. View A has a fitted bodice, an A-line skirt, scooped pockets, and front pleats. View B has a fitted bodice and a fitted skirt. Both views have a semi-exposed zipper in the back perfect for adding a bit of contrast if that's your style. Additionally, there are seven sleeve options ranging from a short ruffled sleeve to a full-length sleeve! This dress can transition from casual to dressy depending on the version or fabric you use. Add some contrast piping along the matching front seams for an edgier look or layer a collared button-up underneath for a day in the office.

I really love that separate pieces are provided for sleeved and sleeveless views, since this is very often overlooked by indie designers.

This pattern was very easy to follow. I made a muslim, and didn't need to make any pattern adjustments.

I don't like how bulky the neck and arm bindings get, and I'll try a different method for the next dress.
