Description
Description
The Wilder Gown is a relaxed, floaty dress and top pattern with plenty of options for making it your own. It features raglan sleeves, a softly gathered neckline with ties, and a loose tiered shape that is easy to wear and easy to sew.
Choose between a top or dress, long or short sleeves, and one or two skirt tiers depending on the look you want. The simple, modular design makes Wilder a lovely pattern to customise, and it works especially well in soft woven fabrics with plenty of drape.
Suggested Fabrics:
Your fabric choice will completely change the feel of the finished garment. Drapey fabrics such as rayon, silk, chiffon or cotton voile will give a softer, more fluid look, while linen and other slightly more structured woven fabrics will create a fuller, more sculptural silhouette.
