The beautiful NOTTE dress is an elegant and feminine creation, designed for the holidays. Its sweetheart neckline flatters the neckline, while its defined waist and delicately pleated bodice create a graceful, effortless silhouette. Two back options (open or buttoned) and two skirt lengths allow for a variety of styles, from evening looks to more everyday wear.

Its shortened sleeves and flowing skirt with pockets combine comfort and style. NOTTE is the ball gown revisited: contemporary, danceable and luminous, perfect for shining with lightness.

Sizes: 34 to 52.

Level: INTERMEDIATE, The technical points of the pattern are: sewing darts and pleats, sewing rounded necklines with a neat finish, making a sheath construction for impeccable shoulder finishes, making a button placket, attaching elastic at the back and sewing an invisible side zip.

Choice of fabrics: Light to medium fabric, between 100 and 200 g/m², which presses well to facilitate sewing pleats and necklines: poplin, dupioni, fine jacquard, chambray, light denim, in cotton, viscose, linen or tencel. Avoid fabrics that are too fluid or stretchy, as they may distort the pleats and neckline.
