Olivia Dress - Printed Version
The Olivia Dress is a pinafore style wrap dress which can be worn on its own or over a top, I recommend the Amaya Shirt, but a simple t-shirt or turtle neck also looks great. It has lovely deep pockets, an adjustable waist tie and shoulder straps which cross at the back. If you are someone who always loves the idea of wearing backless dresses but can’t go braless, the Josie Bra is the perfect match for this dress.
ALSO AVAILABLE TO ORDER AS A PDF PATTERN HERE
The Olivia Dress is available in UK sizes 6 - 24. A size chart will be included in the pattern to help you work out which size to make.

Light, medium and heavy weight woven fabrics will work best for this pattern. This includes silk, linen, denim, corduroy, chambray, cotton twill. Remember the dress is not lined so you might not want something too transparent.
Maximum fabric needed 2.8m length (150 wide) For sizes 6-14 3m length (120 wide) Plus 1m of fusible interfacing
I recommend this pattern to ambitious beginners and more experienced sewers alike.
