Create a striking piece with the Phillips Woven Top and Dress sewing pattern, featuring a sculptural cape-like silhouette and elegant design details. Choose between a round or V-neckline, a hip-length top or mid-length dress, with a straight body that can be worn loose or customised with an optional elasticated back casing for subtle shaping. The unique raglan sleeves form a dramatic back yoke, while shaped elbow-length sleeves and side splits complete the contemporary look.
Designed for woven fabrics with beautiful drape such as Tencel, rayon, silk charmeuse or velvet, this versatile sewing pattern is perfect for creating modern everyday wear or elevated occasion pieces. With optional inseam pockets on the dress and flexible back opening options, Phillips offers effortless style with a distinctive designer-inspired edge.
