This is another fabulous a-line dress. Perfect for hot summer days or the office.
This is the Elbow-Sleeve A-Line Midi Dress by Lafayette 148 New York. Price tag: $698.00. Details: Approximately 37-inches from shoulder to hem, notched collar, elbow-length sleeve, yoked back, on-seam pockets, hem hits around knee, a-line silhouette, pullover style, unlined, viscose/elastane fabric, dry clean. Model is 5'10". Here is a close up of the pocket area:
The way the pocket area is done reminds me of slot seams. Although I like the hidden pocket, I am not so sure about the large breast pocket. The first pattern that came to mind is this one:
This is the Gallery Tunic + Dress pattern by Liesl & Co. The pattern is a little different than the inspiration photo - yokes would need to be added, pockets would need to be added, sleeves shortened, hem straightened but I think the basics are there. This pattern does have a pleat that the inspiration photo does not have. You might be able to remove it.
Hope you are inspired to create something wonderful.
Happy Stitching!
