Hallon Dress
Hallon Dress
The Hallon Dress is such a happy, swingy dress! I hope wearing it makes you feel like a summer day.
View A has a very relaxed fit, and a lovely ruffled hem. The back sits low and loose, so the shape of your gorgeous back can be seen.
You will learn how to:
✿ Make and use bias binding
✿ Gather fabric
✿ Sew darts
✿ Sew french seams
View B has a straighter fit, with no back gathers so it sits closer to your back. It also has side seam slits. In addition to what you will learn in View A, you will also learn:
✿ French seam side slits
You can of course mix it up and put the hem ruffle on View B, and vice versa, not use the hem ruffle on View A and instead add side seam slits.
FABRIC RECOMMENDATIONS
This dress will look great in a lightweight to medium woven fabric, such as silk crepe or charmeuse, rayon twill or challis, tencel, or modal. View A would also look so cute and billowy in a crisp cotton or linen. View B begs to be made in a slinky, drapey fabric.

This dress is so comfortable and cute and the instructions are very easy to understand!
Really love the pattern. Easy to follow and there’s also a video on YouTube to follow. The pattern is flattering and i come back to it whenever I want to make a cute summer dress.
easy and nice pattern. i love it :)
Lovely dress, and a quick make. I like how flowy it is. The instructions regarding some steps were not super clear, but made some more sense when watching the sew along video. This may just be a me thing, but I was measuring out at a size 12 with my body measurements, which made my fit overall quite large, which I think you can get away with because of the design and if you a comfortable with a bigger fit. As someone who is interested to try more Paradise Patterns would you say that the it is better to use the "finished garment" measurements instead of the "body measurements" with your patterns?
I made this dress in view B to go under a sheer outer dress for my sister’s wedding and it turned out *perfect*! The instructions were easy to read and understand and it took so little time to complete! I will definitely be making other versions in the future :)
