LATE SUMMER DRESS 4-14 years - PDF

PDF pattern - dungaree dress

Late Summer is a dungaree dress for girls aged 4 to 14. Both timeless and modern, it's a classic in our girls' wardrobes that can be worn in all seasons. Straps to adjust the dress to the child's size, button tabs on each side of the skirt for easy dressing, and large pockets on each side of the skirt to slip in pebbles and other treasures found in the playground!

EDIT December 2023: In addition to the classic version of the dungaree dress, you automatically receive the pattern and step-by-step instructions for the simplified version of the model: the front top in a single lined piece (instead of 2 parts for the classic version) and the skirt part consisting of a single piece for the front and one piece for the back. This version does not have pockets. A quicker and easier version to sew!

Fabric recommendation:

I recommend gabardine, twill, thick cotton, corduroy, or of course denim (not too thick, it would be difficult to work with and uncomfortable to wear). For the lining, choose cotton or poplin (a rather light fabric). Topstitching with contrasting thread, pretty buttons, piping added to the edge of the pockets... the dress is easily customizable.
