Description
Description
The Suvi Caftan Dress is an effortlessly stylish pattern that can be dressed up or down with ease. Choose between a relaxed mini dress or an elegant bohemian-inspired maxi dress, both featuring a deep V-neckline, extended shoulder sleeves and a loose, easy-to-wear silhouette that's gently gathered with drawstring cords.
The mini dress is perfect for everyday wear, warm-weather adventures or as a simple throw-on over swimwear, while the maxi version adds softly gathered shoulders and a second waist cord for extra shaping and a beautifully flowing finish. Depending on your fabric choice, Suvi can become a casual linen dress, a sophisticated evening style or the perfect holiday cover-up.
Sizes: XS-XXL
Pattern Features:
- Two dress lengths – mini and maxi
- Deep V-neckline
- Extended shoulder sleeves
- Relaxed fit with adjustable drawstring waist
- Maxi version includes gathered shoulders and a second waist drawstring for additional shaping
- Easy-to-wear pull-on style
Suitable Fabrics: Lightweight woven fabrics with no stretch. For a light, airy silhouette choose double gauze, cotton lawn or washed linen. For a softer, more fluid finish, use viscose challis, crepe or satin.
