Garment 203: Dresses with Pockets

“Guess what? It has pockets!” The best dresses always have pockets and these three all have clever front inseam pockets. Tunic and top versions are also an option.

The Cielo Dress & Top is an easy, breezy take on a boxy tee and shift dress. Loaded with interesting details and interchangeable features, it will fast become a wardrobe-building favorite. Choose between a semi-cropped top with a cuffed short sleeve or a dramatic gathered long sleeve. Or make an easy-fitting dress with sleek inseam pockets or without and your choice of sleeves. All views have a slightly dropped shoulder, angled shoulder yoke and roomy fit.

The Farrow features an elegant A-line shape set off by a jewel neckline. Clever diagonal seaming adds interest and conceals inseam pockets. The option of making the Farrow sleeveless or using the bracelet length sleeves gives it year-round versatility.

The Uniform Tunic is designed as a choose your own adventure sewing pattern. While we have provided four options for you, the possibilities are endless as all of the design features are mix and match! Choose your favorite neckline and skirt, decide between sleeves or sleeveless, add pockets — you can’t go wrong!

In class we will go over different ways of finishing seam allowances, bias binding vs. facings and what works best depending on your fabric choice and skill level regardless of what the pattern includes.
