Download the lingerie-style dress pattern for free!
The lingerie-style dress has repeatedly ascended the fashion pedestals, conquering with its emphasized sexuality and at the same time, the natural simplicity of the cut. And as the fashion world is experiencing a renaissance of the 90s, the lingerie-style dress (or slip dress, as it’s also called) will keep you on top.
Our reference. Jean Paul Gaultier was one of the first fashion designers who dared to bring a linen-style dress to the podium. The maestro created a sleep-dress for Madonna. John Galliano and Dior dressed Princess Diana in the same outfit.
Thin straps, a deep neckline and delicate lace trim all emphasize the femininity of our model. You need this dress! The lingerie-style dress is very comfortable, light and versatile. We recommend choosing pastel-colored fabrics for daytime looks, and darker colors fabrics for evening looks.
