PATTERN DE COUTURE FRANCE
Here's France, a dress that's a little uniform, a little vintage, but still practical and easy to match with your wardrobe, by layering it over a jacket, or a shirt, or putting an undershirt underneath.
With its high neckline that emphasizes the head, it's close-fitting at the bust, and more comfortable on the skirt. Of course, it's got pockets, and a slit at the bottom of the skirt lets you frolic without restriction all day long.
The measurements shown in the table are those of the garment flat.
#Sizing tip: France is a fitted dress. Choose your size according to the largest measurement between your bust or your hips.
