Linen V-Neck Dress with Long Bishop Sleeves

This pattern makes a feminine midi dress with a flattering V-neckline and full, voluminous bishop sleeves that gather softly into the cuff. Designed for women, it balances a relaxed, easy-wearing shape with elegant details, making it a versatile addition to a handmade wardrobe for sewists who enjoy a dress that feels both comfortable and considered.

Linen is the natural first choice, giving the sleeves their gentle volume while keeping the dress breathable and light. Linen blends and other soft, drapey wovens also work well. The midi length and long sleeves suit spring and autumn days, warm-weather evenings, travel, work, or weekend occasions where something simple but polished is needed.

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.
