Square Neck Dress 2 Sewing Patterns | DRCOS Patterns & How To Make

Comments are made using translation software.

This is the pattern for a square-necked dress with a box pleated skirt panel.

The belt is optional in its design.

It's been made quite simple to facilitate easy production, so it should be relatively easy to make despite its appearance.

The skirt length can be adjusted to the shortest possible length by adjusting the adjustment line, so please adjust the skirt length to fit your body.

After printing, paste it according to the pasting line,Cut and use.

The pattern has a seam allowance, so it can be used as is.
