Dress 452 — strapless fitted mermaid dress
Strapless dress pattern fitted from bust to knee, with a mermaid cut that flares out toward the hem, for party lines.
Long strapless dress, fitted from the bust to the knee, with a mermaid cut that opens into a flare toward the hem and, in some versions, a draped detail at the waist.
It cuts well in satin or a crepe with good body, which supports the close fit of the mermaid cut. This is a garment for party and gala lines, and the same base pattern can be produced in several solid colors.
It comes in 8 sizes (XS to 4XL) with the industrial grading already done: pick the sizes you need on the product page, or buy the full size range in one go. Delivered as an A4 PDF to print at home and a true-scale plotter PDF (90, 120 or 150 cm wide); DXF/AAMA, Optitex (PDS), marker (MRK) or Audaces (ADS) files for cutting directly in CAD are available on request. Digital download within 24 hours of payment confirmation.
Professional sewing pattern for women, approved with a sewn sample, with the full industrial size range available. Sizes are chosen on the product page (the base price covers the standard size selection and each extra size adds a small surcharge); the CAD formats include the full size range.
