DESIGN
The Magda dress is a relaxed, romantic dress with mild medieval vibes. Fend off the witch hunters with spells tucked in those billowy sleeves. The centre front neckline has an angular V-neck with seam lines repeating on the front-facing, bust and skirt yoke. The waistline sits at the high hip with a drawstring to nip in the waist. The skirt yoke is long and narrow to the hip, followed by a skirt panel utilising bias to create a bolder hem flare.
FIT
The Madga silhouette strikes a balance between soft and angular. The fit is loose enough to pull on, skimming to the high hip with a drawstring waist.
The skirt length is maxi/ankle. The sleeve cuff finishes at the wrist.
The amount of ease does give sizing some wriggle room. Provided in the instructions and pattern are finished measurements, including bodice, sleeve & sleeve lengths and ease provided at the bust, true waist, hip and high hip waist seam.
SKILL LEVEL
Intermediate.
FABRIC
Make the Magda in summer and winter-weight fabrics: linen cotton, lighter corduroy, and denim fabric with a drape suit this style. Very crispy, stiff and papery fabrics do not suit this style.
