May 9, 2016 - As some of you know, I take bridal gown commissions from time to time. First off, we have a free custom fit wedding dress sewing pattern from. Finally a pattern that is timeless! I've been combing the store and company catalogs for years and never liked what is there; the skirt is too big, or the sleeves too dated, or the neckline is unflattering, or too much frills, or not enough focus point, or too little coverage etc. Until now, this one is PERFECT! So it looks like a copycat of one oversea princess' but then she has class and so does this pattern and I've been looking LOOOOONG before her appearance. A-line skirt with just enough fullness, neckline and sleeves coverage for modesty, a simple bustle so front and back is pleasing to look upon! I modified the bustle for mine and I've made a trial fitting with the proper measurements and I am very pleased because as we all know, we are not shaped like models in photos - we have lumps and bumps that. I used this pattern several years ago when I needed a period costume for a play I was in. I am not the easiest person in the world to fit so I end up making a lot of my own costumes. This dress fit perfectly the first time I made it after a few carful measurements and alterations for my size. It also only took me one day to make. When making, cut the waist yoke and skirt to fit your waist measurement. Free Printable Wedding Dress PatternsThe skirt is a full circle, so it will go over larger hips easily. A larger bodice size also easily gatheres into a smaller waist, check the bodice yoke against your shoulder measurements. Simple Wedding Dress PatternsI lengthened the skirt (I'm 5' 8' tall and was wering 2 1/2' heels) by adding length to the ruffle at the hem. I did use a different sleeve pattern than the one provided.
