A complete dressmaking kit to make a stunning black Mersis - a shift dress for superstars! The Mersis from Pattern Fantastique draws on 80’s glam with generous shapes and peek-a-boo features that suggest more than they reveal. Just look at those Dynasty balloon sleeves!
The pattern includes three length variations. Loose through the body and slight taper in the dress length hemlines. The ‘V’ necklines are purposefully cut to be above most bra straps and to minimise shoulder drop. The centre front hem features a mitre corner finish and is split for the two longer length variations. Pocket openings are high on the hip to streamline hips and reduce lapline bagging. There's a lot of ease throughout the body.
The fabric is a lovely black linen-like cloth made from ramie and cotton, both natural fibres.
Ability: Aimed at intermediate sewers or those looking for a good project.
