The Doris Dress Pattern is a fun and fashionable doll dress featuring a curved empire waist. The front seam is cinched with hidden elastic, creating a soft, playful puckering on the bodice and skirt. The elastic is sandwiched between the main fabric and lining, ensuring a smooth, stylish finish with gentle shaping.

Designed with a scoop neckline, puff cap sleeves, and an A-line skirt in short or mid-length options, this dress is fully lined for a beautiful finish. A Velcro back closure makes dressing easy.

This pattern includes variations for a sleeveless version and a sheer overlay, allowing for customizable styles. Made for woven fabrics, the Doris Dress shines in quilting cotton, satin, or silky prints—perfect for both playful, casual looks and more dressed-up outfits.
