Elegant Long Evening Dress with Side Slit

The Elegant Long Evening Dress with Side Slit is a floor-length design for women who want one memorable piece in the wardrobe. The long, uninterrupted silhouette skims the body from shoulder to hem, while the high side slit opens with every step and keeps the look graceful rather than heavy. It suits sewists who enjoy a clean, dramatic shape and a finished garment that reads as formal without extra trimmings.

Flowing fabrics flatter this style best. Satin, crepe, velvet, georgette and other soft drapey wovens follow the length of the dress and let the slit fall open naturally. Make it in a deep tone for weddings, galas and evening receptions, or in a lighter shade for summer celebrations and graduation parties.

Sizes run from XS to 5XL (XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL). The pattern is a PDF for printing at home on A4 paper, and it also includes an A0 file for printing at a copy shop. Each size is a separate file, so you print only the size you need.
