Fitted Bodycon Pencil Dress with Square Neckline

This fitted bodycon pencil dress brings together a close-fitting silhouette and a clean square neckline, making it a refined choice for sewists who enjoy sharply tailored shapes. The slim pencil line follows the body from shoulder to hem, while the square neck frames the collarbone and keeps the overall look sophisticated rather than fussy. It suits anyone building a wardrobe of polished, easy-to-style dresses.

Stable knits such as ponte or a medium-weight jersey with good recovery work well for the body-skimming fit, and firmer stretch wovens can also be used for a more structured result. The style moves comfortably from office hours to dinner, and dresses up quickly with heels and simple jewellery for evenings and celebrations.

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.
