Amelia Maxi, Dress & Top – Ladies

Rated 5.00 out of 5 based on 10 customer ratings

$10.00

The Amelia is the perfect dress for any occasion. It can be dressed up for a fancy brunch or casual enough for a stroll on the beach. The wrap front bodice beautifully accentuates the body. The empire waist is flattering no matter what your shape is and the gathered band gives a nice detail not often found in dresses like this. The knit bodice can be paired with a knit or woven skirt. And since the pattern comes in sleeveless, short sleeve, 3/4 sleeve, and long sleeve, you are ready for any season. On top of the multiple sleeve lengths, the pattern includes options for a top length, knee length dress, and a maxi. Also, as with all our knit women’s pattern, and optional full bust adjustment is included in the pattern making fitting a breeze.

The dress is awesome Until now I wasn’t aware that I needed to use a bust adjustment. By using it the dress fit perfect. I had a little problem understanding the directions but eventually figured out what had to be done

I’m so in love! Love the pattern, even if I had to adjust it for my bust. But I never want to take it off anymore!

Whether you are hourglass shaped, straight hipped, or apple shaped, this design is flattering and can be made for play, work, or even fancy it up for a black tie event! It is elegant and fun – you can also be your true sassy self in your Amelia – and you won’t be happy making just one! Follow the directions STEP by STEP in order to ensure a pleasurable sewing experience.

Very accurate instructions, I’m used to read diagonally but that didn’t work this time. When I followed the steps and read with a bit more attention, all was clear to me. I love the dress, it fit’s perfectly. Definitely will use this pattern again!

Beautiful. I love the lined bodice. It is easy for me to nurse in as an added bonus. It has a very full skirt and I made the maxi so it is a lot of fabric but it is ao flattering I get a lot of compliments when I wear the dress. Additions like using the clear elastic to stabilize and gather make the finish very professional.
