Cashmerette – Washington Dress
€19,95
Mixing the comfort of a knit bodice with the fabric possibilities of a woven skirt, the Washington Dress gives you the freedom to play with colors and textures, for a look that’s uniquely you. Like all Cashmerette Patterns, the bodice comes in three cup sizes (C/D, E/F, and G/H), which makes fitting a cinch!
Style-wise, the Washington Dress gives you endless design options. The knit bodice features a figure-enhancing scoop neckline and three sleeve variations: short, three-quarter, or full length. The A-line skirt cleverly combines woven fabric with a heavy knit yoke, eliminating the need for closures and allowing you to comfortably slip the dress over your head. For additional tummy control, the front yoke can be made from a woven fabric.
SEWING LEVEL

They believe in changing clothes and mindsets, rather than being told we should change our bodies. They also think the idea that beauty can be measured in numbers is way past its expiration date—and that they are undeniable proof. With their modern and elegant sewing patterns, you will look amazing, just as you are. You deserve a wardrobe that exudes personality and style, and you are just the person to make it.
JENNY Rushmore is a curvy sewist based in Boston, Massachusetts. She discovered sewing at age 30. She quickly became obsessed with its infinite possibilities. Equipped with the tools and skills to make clothes that she loved and fit her body, Jenny began noticing a transformation in not only her wardrobe, but her confidence. The simple realization that we should be changing our clothes to fit our bodies, rather than the other way around, was life-changing. Jenny founded the Curvy Sewing Collective to share her inspirations, tips and sewalongs with fellow curvy bloggers. As her craft evolved from sewing to designing, Jenny launched Cashmerette Patterns where she now creates original patterns with both comfort and style in mind.
