The Kinfolk Dress pattern by Jennifer Lauren Handmade has bohemian 40s style at its heart. Part kaftan, part wrap-style dress, slip Kinfolk over your head and wrap the front waist ties around to the back to cinch in the silhouette however you please.
With princess seam shaping from the shoulder down over the bust, a panelled centre front bodice, and six gored skirt, Kinfolk is your everyday throw-on dress that will take you from beach cover-up to BBQ dinner in no time.
Recommended Fabric: Light- to mid-weight woven fabrics with some drape. Cotton lawn, voile, and poplin to linen, tencel, light chambray or denim, as well as double gauze, sateen, and seersucker are easy to sew with and wear. Rayon, silks, crepes and other slinky fabrics also work well, as do flannel and wool suitings for a heavier garment during cooler weather.
