From Jennifer Lauren Handmade:
Designed with autumn layers in mind, Dulcie brings 60s charm to a structured pinafore dress.
Dulcie is a structured, button-down pinafore dress with a square neckline and semi-fitted A-line skirt with square in-set pockets.
Princess seams provide shaping through the bodice for a smooth fit over the bust and back, and deep roomy pockets carry all of your daily essentials.
The bodice is fully lined for a clean inside finish, and optional top-stitching in key areas can add a modern element to an otherwise 60s mod design.
Wear Dulcie over light-weight blouses and shirts or fitted knit tops, for a warm layered dress. If you’re heading into the warmer months however, and don’t want to be wearing additional layers, Dulcie has plenty of coverage and is able to be worn on its own as a sleeveless summer dress.
Dulcie works perfectly paired with any of the JLH knit top patterns (Dulcie is styled here with a Gable Top, but Ostara, Bronte and Vielle would also look lovely) as well as the Aisling Blouse.
Throw on a cardigan and a pair of gumboots for a stroll, or layer with a shirt and add heels for the office.
