Loviisa denim dress
Sizes: EUR 32-56 | US 0-24 | UK 4-28 | Size chart
Loviisa is a modern and urban a-line mini jeans dress sewing pattern. The large collar, chunky button placket, and angular chest pockets make this classic style more edgy. The dress also features handy side pockets and cuffed long sleeves. The pleats and slits on the cuffs add volume and lightness to the sleeves. The dress is decorated throughout with subtle topstitching.
