Dress for young fashionistas with an original cut. In front there is an undercut under the bust, from under which pleats emerge, secured with stitching to the waistline. Raglan sleeves, widened at the bottom, gathered at cuffs.
This pattern can be used in many ways: for sewing an elegant, evening, cocktail dress, and with skillful selection of material using the same pattern, you can sew a dress in which you can attend classes at school or university, go shopping or take an evening stroll in the city. You can easily adjust the length of the dress and sleeve length according to your own wishes.
Soft fabrics are suitable for sewing this dress model, for example, crepe, chiffon, thin wool, light linen, thin elastic knitwear, etc.
The pattern is given with seam allowances of 1.5 cm, unless otherwise indicated on the patterns.
Bust 78 81 84 cm
Waist circumference 60 63 66 cm
Hip circumference 84 87 90 cm
After receiving the pattern, print the sheets, glue them according to the diagram and cut out the desired size.
A few important notes:
1. Check the scale - the sides of the square on the first sheet of the pattern should be exactly 10 cm.
2. Before cutting out the pattern, take a centimeter and carefully take measurements from your figure or from the figure of your client for whom you are going to sew a dress. Compare the result obtained with the pattern parameters, adjust if necessary, and only then cut out the patterns, taking into account the amendments.
3. When cutting in those places where clarification is possible after fitting, allow allowances slightly larger than usual.
Please note that the patterns are designed for a conventionally typical figure, so the best option is to check it on a mock-up fabric, and after trying on and adjusting, you can safely start working with the “finish version”.

Raglan sleeves are back in fashion. Modeling a raglan sleeve pattern for a dress or blouse is very simple, and raglan sleeve It is very easy to sew into a dress, unlike a regular sleeve.
So, if you decide to sew a dress with raglan sleeve, you need to first construct or blouses and
by your own standards.
Then you should transfer onto tracing paper the front part of the dress separately, and the back of the dress separately.
The sleeve should be re-shot on tracing paper as a whole, and then for modeling raglan sleeve patterns, the sleeve pattern must be cut in half vertically so that the cut runs exactly in the center of the sleeve from the highest point of the sleeve to the bottom of the sleeve. (We get the front and back halves of the sleeve).
On the front half of the dress, move the chest dart to the line of the side of the dress (side dart). How to do this, see point 1 of this article.

Description of work:
1. Place the front half of the sleeve over the front half of the dress, aligning the shoulder section with the top point of the dress sleeve. In this case, the sleeve should be at a slight angle, which you can vary yourself, depending on the chosen dress model.
The greater the slope of the sleeve, the more convex the shoulder cap is, however, the angle of the sleeve in relation to the front half of the dress should not be too large.
2. Divide the neckline of the front of the dress in half. From the resulting point, draw 2 smooth, beautiful lines: one to the armhole of the dress, the second to the sleeve (see Fig. 1-2). In the upper part the lines repeat the shape of each other, towards the bottom they diverge. In the raglan sleeve drawing, the lilac dash-dotted line models the raglan sleeve, the green dash-dotted line models the cut of the dress for the raglan sleeve.
3. Model the raglan sleeve for the back of the dress in the same way.
4. Transfer the pattern of the front and back halves of the dress and the front and back halves of the raglan sleeves onto tracing paper according to the applied modeling lines.
Note: The neckline of the dress and the width of the raglan sleeves can also be changed according to style if necessary.

No wonder they say that everything new is well forgotten old. This statement is especially suitable for such a capricious “lady” as fashion. Suddenly something that seemed outdated has become fashionable. But designers introduce something new, and the thing becomes the last squeak. The raglan dress is back in fashion.
Which fabric is better to choose
It is no secret that many representatives of the fair sex are very fond of fabrics such as knitwear and the like, so that they are elastic and softly envelop the body. Firstly, it looks very feminine, and secondly, things made from such materials are also very versatile from the point of view of women who have any figure flaws. Knitted dresses are very slimming, comfortable and cozy. Also, knitted fabric is very practical to wear. It doesn’t wrinkle and washes easily, which is also very important for any woman. And another undeniable advantage of knitwear and fabrics identical to it is its versatility. Knitwear can be worn for all occasions. For both everyday wear and special occasions. In addition, this can be an office option. It’s enough to add a suitable accessory to this or that look, and that’s it, you’ll look just great! A raglan dress made of jersey is the best solution; the thing will be elegant and at the same time practical. After all, the raglan sleeve itself is very comfortable. It is free and does not restrict movement. And besides, it is also warming, which is very useful for Russian beauties in cool weather.
We sew ourselves
For all needlewomen who like to create their own outfits, it is worth noting right away that a raglan dress is simply sewn, because it does not have any complex details. And even a novice craftswoman can easily cope with sewing. For example, you should sew a sleeve only along slightly curved lines, and not along circular ones. Yes, and bending the sections will be quite easy.
To start sewing a dress with raglan sleeves, you need to download the pattern from our website, it is located at the end of the page, print the diagram and glue it according to the diagram and cut out the desired size. Please note that before cutting this pattern, you must know your own measurements, that is, take a centimeter and carefully measure your figure. Next, compare your own measurements with the dimensions of the pattern. Change the parameters if necessary, and only then can you cut out the patterns, taking into account all the changes. In places where clarification may be required, allow allowances a little larger than usual when cutting. We must not forget that patterns are usually designed for a standard figure, so it would be useful to check it on a model, try it on, and adjust it again. Calculate the cut details. Well, after that, don’t be afraid, get to work!
Sewing
So, you will need to overcast and iron the seams after stitching, then be sure to process the darts in front of the bodice, put a mark at the bottom of the front of the fold, stitch and iron. After this, connect the top and bottom of the front, stitch the darts and middle seam on the back to the mark. Sew in a fastener (usually a zipper), stitch the side sections, upper and lower sleeve sections. Then assemble the sleeve sections (lower) in parallel, the gathers should be uniform. The cuff cross sections need to be stitched into a ring and sewn to the lower sleeve sections. Now you can sew the sleeves of the dress into the armholes. Finish the neckline with facings and hem the bottom of the dress.
That's it, your masterpiece is ready! Wear it with pleasure, and don't forget to complement it with suitable additions and accessories.

Today we will be modeling the basic design of a dress and one-seam sleeve to create a raglan dress pattern.
But first, let's figure out what raglan is.
Raglan- this is a type of sleeve cut in which the sleeve is cut out together with the shoulder part of the front and back. The main feature of a raglan cut product is the armhole, which starts from the neck line, while the armhole itself is somewhat deeper in comparison with the armhole of a set-in sleeve. The shoulder part of the front and back is filled with a sleeve, and in place of the shoulder seam there is a connecting seam of the sleeve.
Depending on the configuration of the armhole, the following are distinguished: types of raglan:
1 - classic raglan
2 - zero raglan
3 - semi-raglan
4 — raglan shoulder strap
5 — one-piece raglan with a yoke.
You can create a raglan sleeve pattern using design, or using constructive modeling of the basic dress pattern and one-seam sleeve. In this article we will look at the second method - modeling.
Let's prepare several blank sheets of paper, as well as the basic designs of the dress and one-seam sleeve (you can use the patterns created by by any method).
Modeling the back and shelf
Since we need to change the line of the armhole and the shoulder part of the product, we will transfer only the bodice of the dress to a blank sheet of paper, tracing the patterns of the back and front along the contour. Be sure to mark the control points of the armhole. Let us mark on the back the end shoulder point A and the control point of the armhole B, on the front the end shoulder point C and the control point of the armhole D.
Divide the back armhole line in section AB in half and connect the resulting point with the top of the shoulder dart. On the armhole shelf up from the control point D, set aside 1-2 cm, connect the resulting point with the top of the chest dart. We will also connect the tops of the chest and waist darts with a straight line.
Cut the back piece along the marked line and move the shoulder dart to the armhole line. Let's measure the size of the tuck solution.
Now let’s cut the front along the marked lines and move part of the chest dart into the armhole line by the same amount of opening as on the back. We will transfer the remaining part of the chest dart into the waist dart.
Thus, we lengthened the armhole lines of the back and front by the same amount.
Now let’s deepen the line of the armhole of the back and the shelf along the side cuts by 2-4 cm, denoting the resulting points K and L. Draw new lines of the armhole, connecting points A, B and K with smooth lines, and on the shelf - C, D and L.
On the back of the bodice, from point K, we will set aside half of the armhole AK minus the shoulder dart opening, we will designate the resulting point as P. Similarly, on the front, we will divide the armhole line SL in half, subtract the shoulder dart opening, and we will put the resulting result up from point L and designate point P.
Along the lines of the neckline of the front and back, we will set aside 2-4 cm from the shoulder section and connect the resulting points with auxiliary lines to points P and R.
Let's connect points P1 and P1 with points P and P with smooth lines with a deflection of 1 cm in the middle of the auxiliary segments.
The constructed lines are new armhole lines and at the same time sleeve cap lines.
Let's cut the back and shelf along these lines.
These are the shoulder parts we got. The back shoulder is the shoulder section of the back of the sleeve, and the front shoulder is the shoulder section of the front of the sleeve.
And the bodice pattern will now look like this. The chest dart can be moved back or moved into the side seam, or left as is, depending on the model of the product.
Sleeve modeling
On a blank sheet of paper, trace the pattern of a single-seam sleeve along the contour, transfer the line of the middle of the sleeve, the elbow line and the control points of the sleeve hem. Extend the elbow line by 0.6 cm from the front cut.
Let's draw a new front section of the sleeve through a point of 0.6 cm.
Since we deepened the armhole by 2-4 cm, we need to increase the height of the sleeve cap by the same amount. To do this, we will put 2-4 cm down along the sections of the sleeve from the edge line; we will designate the resulting points as M and H, which we will connect with smooth lines to the control points of the edge.
Let's reduce the opening of the elbow dart by 0.6 cm and raise the lower section of the sleeve by the same amount.
Up from point M, let us plot along the saddle line a value equal to the length of the arc AP of the shoulder section, and mark point P. Up from point H, we plot the value of the arc CP of the shoulder section and mark point P.
Extend the line of the middle of the sleeve upward by 0.6 cm and draw an auxiliary horizontal line through the resulting point.
Now let’s attach the upper sections of the sleeve parts so that points P and P of the shoulder parts align with points P and P on the sleeve cap, and points A and C are on the auxiliary line.
We divide the segment AC in half, and denote the resulting point T (this point may not coincide with the line of the middle of the sleeve). Along the bottom line of the sleeve, we will set aside 1.6 from the middle line towards the front cut of the sleeve, and connect the resulting point with a straight line to point T.
