Buy the Clara Dress sewing pattern from Silversaga Patterns. Inspired by Victorian chemise dresses but with a modern twist, Clara features dramatic 3/4 length puff sleeves with elastic cuffs. The sleeves are designed to be worn on the shoulders, but also look pretty off the shoulder. The bodice has two channels with elastic, at the underbust and waist. The A-line skirt has hidden side seam pockets. Clara is also reversible: one neckline is higher than the other, and you can wear the lower neckline in the front or back.
