The Monty Shirt and Dress is a versatile two-in-one pattern that offers effortless style in two distinct silhouettes. Choose between a relaxed button-through dress that falls below the knee or a modern, boxy shirt that sits at the high hip.
Both views feature a deep yoke, extended shoulder line, neat revere collar, and stylish pocket flaps, creating a contemporary look with clean, tailored details. The easy-fitting dress includes side splits for comfort and movement, making it perfect for everyday wear with trainers or dressed up for special occasions. The shirt offers a chic, square-shaped silhouette that's ideal for pairing with trousers, skirts, or jeans.
Please note that Style Arc patterns are designed for more confident makers. Written instructions are included but are not illustrated at every step.
