Ashland Dress Sizes 2-20 - Sew Liberated

This lovingly designed dress contours to your curves, with pattern pieces not just for sizes 2-20, but also for A-D cups. You get a great fit without tricky bust adjustments.

The bodice is fully-lined, allowing you to use lighter-weight fabrics. It looks great in wool too, making it an all-season design. Try the sleeveless version in summer and the 3/4-length sleeves in the chill.

Two pocket versions, a decorative sash, and buttons down the front complete the dress. Buttonholes are made optional by an invisible zipper that we show you how to install up the back.

This is an intermediate pattern, but with resources for beginners who want to step up. It includes instructions, assembly diagrams and full-size pattern pieces for women’s sizes 2-20 and cup sizes A-D.
