Named Clothing

Named is an independent clothing pattern label founded by Finnish sisters Saara and Laura Huhta. Named garments are a combination of Scandinavian clean-lined simplicity and interesting details. Named launches two main collections a year, and the patterns have five levels of difficulty, which means that anyone from a beginner to a more experienced sewer can find patterns suited to their skill level.

Named Clothing Ansa Butterfly Sleeve Dress & Top Sewing Pattern ::
The pattern includes two variations: a feminine cocktail dress and a casual top. Both variations have bell-shaped raglan sleeves and a pretty, curved cut at the chest. The dress is unlined, it has a zipper closure in the back and six waist pleats on the front. The dress is knee-length and semi-fitted. The top has a bell-shaped hem which is slightly longer in the back. You can insert piping to either the dress or the top to emphasize the curved cut at the chest.
