JACKIE is an elegant, easy to wear, super comfortable knit dress that slips perfectly from day into night. This style is designed to be easy and quick to make without fussy closures. It features a built up neckline and shapely, figure-flattering seams that lengthen and emphasize your curves. It is fitted at the waist with a full, flowing skirt. A subtle opening at the back upper bodice closes at the neckline with three small buttons and rouleau loop closures. This project uses both a serger and sewing machine. You can also make it with just a sewing machine.
Version 1: Long sleeves with hemline ending just below mid-calf, approximately 32.5" (82.5 cm) down from the natural waist.
Version 2: Sleeveless with hemline ending just below the knee, approximately 26.5" (67.3 cm) down from the natural waist.
Skirt length measurements are taken from a flat pattern. Finished lengths may vary due to fabric weight and stretch.
