Love the dress! Already made the peasant without tiers. I am going to try this one next, but could I line the bust area on this pattern? Any ideas how I Could do that? Thank you ☺️. 🇬🇧
I have not done it, but I am sure you could do it in a few different ways. My first thought is to make it easiest, I would line both the bodice and the sleeves. So, I would cut out two sets of the bodice and sleeves, one of the outside fabric and one with the lining fabric. Then, line up the 2 bodices right sides together and sew along the top edge. I'm not sure how much seam allowance you would need to give at this point; that would require a bit of math. Then, continue sewing the dress as instructed. When it is time to insert the elastic, you would sew along the edge, to create a casing, leaving an opening to insert the elastic. Keep in mind that I have not done this and am just guessing. When I sew something differently, there is usually a bit of trial and error.
Hi Jamie thankyou for this pattern However I'm a bit stuck I've printed the lot I stuck together 4 squares which say tiers on And 2 sleeves pieces Basically what I'm left with is a square all taped together is that right ? Cos it doesn't look the same as yours on the tutorial? I can't make out how many pieces I should have to make the dress? I'm very néw to dressmaking
You should have a sleeve pattern piece, a bodice pattern piece and 2 rectangles for the tiers. (There is also a paper saving option in the instructions that guides you through just printing the sleeve and bodice, and gives dimensions to cut out the rectangles.)
Thank you for this wonderful video and the pattern. A must to make

Be sure to match the colored triangles to form a circle when taping your pattern pieces together. There is a diagram on the blog post.
Love this dress
Thank you! 😊
Hi! Would someone be able to help me find the cut size for the elastic. I appreciate it! I love this dress pattern!
Follow the link in the description for the full pattern and elastic cut sizes.
This is great, I was looking for the same thing 😅.
The elastic cut sizes are found under Step 7: Creating the Neck Casing for your Tiered Dress.
I can't find the free pattern on your page
Look under materials needed for the link.
Hi Jaime do you have a video of you Summer Lounge Dress?
I don't, sorry.
