Girls Tiered Dress with Flutter Sleeves

This girls tiered dress pattern brings together delicate flutter sleeves and a softly gathered, flowing skirt built from tiers. The result is a breezy, festive silhouette that moves easily and suits children who want something comfortable to wear and twirl in. The combination of simple bodice, fluttering sleeve detail and tiered skirt makes it a versatile addition to a handmade kids wardrobe, whether sewn in a plain shade or a playful print.

Light, drapey fabrics show the tiers at their best. Cotton lawn, voile, double gauze, chambray, rayon challis or a soft viscose all gather neatly without adding bulk at the seams. Sew it for birthdays, family celebrations and summer holidays, or make a simpler everyday version for warm days at the park, at the beach or in the garden.

Sizes run from 2Y to 12Y (2Y, 3Y, 4Y, 5Y, 6Y, 7Y, 8Y, 10Y, 12Y). The pattern is a PDF for printing at home on US Letter 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.
