Emporia Patterns - Zoe Dress Pattern
The Zoe dress is a semi fitted shirt dress, that features pleats at the waist, raglan sleeves, , a front placket, two piece collar with stand, couture cutaway pockets, and side splits at the hem. The rectangular pleats create a subtle corseting effect at the waist, while the three quarter length sleeves and slight a-line shaping make for a very elegant silhouette. Make it from crisp cotton or cotton sateen for a more formal look, or go more casual with linen or a bold print. You could hack it to be longer or try it out as a top.
Zoe is an intermediate pattern due to all her exciting features, but she's also a great tool for any sewist wanting to be more adventurous with their skills. She's the ideal learning curve for plackets and more advanced pockets - take your time and enjoy the process!
