Simplicity Sewing Pattern S8875 Misses' Dresses

Lovely pattern clear instructions. Love wearing my dress

This pattern is very narrow at the bust line so I advise cutting extra cm from underarm to waist to fit it.

Loved this pattern. Found instructions clear and concise. Don’t forget when deciding on size, and to get a perfect fit, that it should be chosen on your body measurements and not your ready to wear size. Happy measuring!

I usually use Newlook patterns and they are usually on the large side but liked this dress so gave it ago. Cut out the pattern in prep for laying out and could tell that the pattern pieces did not look big enough and they weren’t! Had to use reduced seam allowance and reduce the darts to just get the dress to fit. I was using the size 14 the maximum size of the pattern (I’m between a 12 and14 in clothes). I’ll be avoiding Simplicity patterns in the future

Love this dress pattern have made a dress three times with it and find it a good fit.

I have re-used this pattern and would recommend

I love the look of the design but unfortunately it is not clear about the size of the pattern. I need the next size up but was not offered an option for this so I assumed that, as so many patterns are, that it covered more sizes. Also, too small was not an option when I tried to return it and I would have to pay £3.99 if I wished to do so. More an Amazon issue than Simplicity. Please make it easier to see.

Be very careful I am a uk size 14 . The pattern pieces for a Size 14 would fit a Size 8 uk. It goes up to 14 So glad I checked it against my manakin first and didn't cut in to the fabric . Very small.
