The California Dress & Peplum pattern is inspired by summer and Southern California beaches. Dresses are not only a summer staple for style, but they are comfortable for wearing in the summer heat.  This pattern includes 3 different lengths, ankle-length maxi, knee-length dress and a peplum top that is great with a pair of bermuda shorts or capris.  As a bonus, the maxi length also offers a hi-low option and has directions right on the pattern piece for lengthening it into a floor-sweeping length. Not only are there the 3 lengths, but this unique bodice is reversible!   That’s right, you can wear it with the scoop neck or the faux-halter style in the front.  Last but not least, it has an elasticized waistline that can be worn alone or mix it up with a cute wide or skinny belt in a contrasting color.  With the flowing knit fabric, multiple length options, and reversible bodice this is bound to become a wardrobe staple.  This girl’s dress and top comes in 19 sizes from newborn to 18 tween.

    Such a quick sew that looks more difficult than it actually is. There are so many options with this pattern it is sure to become a summer staple. My DD put it on and immediately said it was “so comfy”, and now I want one!

    I’ve tested the 4 versions on this pattern and love every single one of them. The instructions are very clear and easy to understand. The pattern is so versatile and every item made wit this pattern, except for the hi-low, is reversible which means 2 looks per item. It also looks very cute with a belt. I recommend this pattern to anyone who would like to have a simple and fast sew with a very nice fit.

    I absolutely love this pattern! I made the peplum version, and it so quick, yet so right on trend. My daughter is requesting many more.

    This pattern is super versatile. Last summer I made all of DD3’s wardrobe from it (she was 2). She had dresses tunics and so many different tops and none of them looked the same. You can’t beat the size range either!
