Empire-Waist Babydoll Dress PDF Sewing Pattern

Prepared after purchase. Digital delivery within 1 business day. This $25 USD order is for pattern preparation. The files are not available for instant download.

Design and fabric

A seam beneath the bust separates the shaped upper bodice from a gathered skirt in this planned babydoll dress. Short puff sleeves and a rounded neckline would frame the upper body, with a back opening to make dressing easier. Consider cotton lawn, soft poplin or a light linen blend for a version with visible gathers. A fluid woven fabric would create a less structured result. The guide would address bodice shaping, even skirt gathering and controlled sleeve fullness. Checking the raised seam position in a toile would be central to fitting this design.

Planned construction

• Shaped bodice with a curved underbust seam
• Gathered skirt joined at the raised waist
• Short set-in puff sleeves
• Rounded neckline and concealed back opening
