We are happy to introduce the Holmen dress and top pattern! We wanted to create a top and dress that is comfortable to move around in, and perfect for any type of adventure you embark on. The Holmen top and dress is a versatile pattern that can be dressed up or down depending on your choice of fabric.
The pattern has a babydoll style front with loose fitting gathered tiers, and skinny shoulder straps. The open back has a deep gathered cut, and is connected with ties.
The Holmen pattern is inspired by the Holmen area in Copenhagen where Anna and Isabel have biked alongside its canals and around its historic buildings in all seasons of the year.
Sewing level: Advanced Beginner/ Intermediate
This pattern is an advanced beginner/ intermediate level. The most difficult techniques used to create this garment are gathering the front and back, and creating and adjusting the straps.
Fabric type: This style works with a wide variety of lightweight to medium woven, non stretchy fabrics. Choose fabric with some hold, such as cotton poplin, sateens, linens or even jacquard, brocade or organza fabrics, for a more dramatic and voluminous style. Using more drapey fabrics, such as cotton batiste or viscose fabrics will result a more romantic and flowy dress or top. Sheer fabrics are fine as the top or dress is partly or fully lined. Lining: Either use the same fabric as your main fabric or choose a lining fabric. We recommend to match the drape and hold of your main fabric.
Sizing & fabric requirements: See photos.
Notions: Thread, and approximately ½ meter (19 5/8") of soft, narrow (5-10 mm or 1/4-3/8") and non-stretch ribbon or fabric tape (not bias tape), such as cotton webbing, soft cotton tape, grosgrain, sateen, or velvet.
Techniques used: Gathering, and creating and adjusting straps.
The PDF pattern consists of multiple PDF documents: Instructions, pattern with bodice and upper tiers (size 34-46, 46-60 and 60-74) and pattern with lower tiers (size 34-46, 46-60 and 60-74). All sizes comes in A0 file format and A4 file format.
