Charlotte Dress – Printed Pattern – English | Cha' coud
This model was imagined with Eve for her book Le vestiaire créatif de Petite bobine — and it was Eve who wanted the design to bear the designer's first name. Charlotte is the perfect dress for the spring/summer season, and it is quick and easy to make.
This button-up dress is both practical and easy to wear: two gathered skirt tiers give ease and volume, and the short sleeves are finished with a soft ruffle.
