Grainline Studio, Austin Dress Paper Pattern

Austin is a semi-fitted sleeveless dress with armhole darts and a keyhole opening at the center front. Customize the Austin with your choice of a knee length A-line or midi-length gathered skirt and add optional patch pockets to carry snacks for you (and your furry friends!). Topstitched seams and button band closures at the side seams add both function and interest.

This is a traditional paper pattern in an envelope that comes in 2 separate size ranges: 0-18 (B Cup) or 14-32 (D Cup).
