Atelier Scämmit's "Helios" Sundress Pattern
Helios is a sundress with 2 length options. The V-neck and cinched waist create a feminine appearance, whilst the pretty butterfly sleeves add a floaty look. On the back, the waist is elasticated and a drawstring (selected according to taste) runs through to be front where it is tied. The two sleeve lengths and the three dress lengths make it a very versatile item, ranging from a little beach dress to an elegant cocktail outfit.
