Adapt the amount of fabric used to the alterations that you are making to the pattern!

• The Filippa Dress is the perfect cotton dress. We used cotton with a fine horizontal stripe.

• It isn’t a problem if the fabric is somewhat stiffer, because this provides the sleeves with a lovely effect. Opt for a trendy linen for a summery look.
