This Simplicity 8125 sewing pattern (Project Runway series) allows you to create four stylish V-neck dresses in different lengths (from mini to midi) with a defined over‑bust empire waistline and soft A‑line skirt. Designed for woven fabrics like rayon challis or lightweight crepe, the pattern features overlap ties under the bust and subtle shaping within the panels, creating a flattering silhouette. The high-waist and flared skirt gently skims the body without clinging.
Fabrics: rayon challis, light crepe, cotton blends, lightweight linen
Notions: thread, 22″ invisible zipper, optional narrow ribbon or fabric ties
The pattern is pre-owned, factory-folded with moderate wear due to age and storage. It is complete with instructions and ships via USPS Ground Advantage in 1–2 business days.
Flattering For
This empire waist dress is especially suited to apple shapes, as it gently camouflages the waist while highlighting the bust and shoulders. It also works well for petite figures, helping any wearer appear taller and balanced. Some users find that it requires minor contour adjustments at the waist to suit their proportions, but the forgiving design makes this easy.
Sewing Tip
Since this design features soft panels and wrap ties, use lightweight fusible interfacing (such as 1⁄4″) at the empire seam and neckline to prevent stretch or distortion. Press seams carefully with a ham to retain curves, especially on the bodice.
