Empire-waisted Regency gowns first came into fashion with simple fabrics reminiscent of Greco-Roman styles, but evolved into gorgeous affairs with delicate prints, layers, beading and ribbons--and this pattern will let you have it either way! This is a slightly larger and more complex pattern than usual, with five different options on how to sew the bodice alone. You will also be able to choose whether you want your skirt to have a train, straight hem, layers, and sleeves, giving you tons of variety!
Patterns Included:Bodices (with gathered/ungathered/layered options) Skirts (with train/straight hem/layered options) and puffy sleeves.Supplies needed: 1/3 yard fabric, thread/sewing supplies
Difficulty: Easy-Intermediate (basic dress is easy, but adding layers adds difficulty) You can also check out the 'Tutorials' section for free resources on sewing and sizing.
You will get a link to the .pdf file to download on checkout as well as in your order confirmation email. You can buy/download/print and get started in minutes!

A few more photos in the instructions would have been amazing.
Yes, all my yes. I love historic patterns and this fits that bill. Everything came out perfectly and it is very easy to follow.
This pattern is exactly what I was looking for. It is easy to follow and gives great results. I've already used it a few times with different fabrics. I love historic styles!
I could just be a novice sewer, but the instructions were a bit hard to follow at times, particularly with the collar and interfacing, hopefully after a few more tries I'll have something that looks great!
I've enjoyed making several Regency dresses with this pattern. It's pretty easy to follow and understand if you know anything about sewing. And the dresses turn out very cute! You can also adapt the pattern if you have others from this same shop; I made a long-sleeved Regency dress by using a sleeve from a seperate pattern.
Steaming the dresses wasn't necessary for most of the gowns.
When I gave a Barbie doll as a gift this past Christmas, of course I had to make her an entire wardrobe before she went to her new home! I made two styles of dresses using this pattern and they both came out fantastic. I have also used the Level Up! pattern for Smart Dolls and this is just as easy to sew as the larger one. Highly recommend for someone just beginning or for someone who only has three days to make sure Barbie has a glamorous closet full of pretty outfits!
This pattern is really easy to follow and the result is absolutely gorgeous!
I’m definitely going to be repeating this and trying all the combinations in the future.
Thank you!
This pattern is easy to understand. I’m excited to make a ton of boots for my boy dolls!
I haven’t used this pattern yet, but it looks like it’ll be pretty easy to make just from looking at the pattern pieces. There are very clear instructions included with the pattern, which I’m sure will make sewing this that much easier, as well as options for a curvy doll!
This pattern was very easy to understand and turned out great! I made an outfit for my Monster High G3 Clawd and it fits him so well (and looks much better than his original clothes).
This was an amazing starter set of patterns for someone just getting into sewing for dolls (or sewing at all, like me!). The instructions were very clear, as were the patterns, and the images really helped me to understand what to do. I have used doll clothes patterns from other sellers since getting this, but none have compared to RAD patterns!
Love this pattern . So many creative ideas come to mind.
Love the fit.
Thank you again
These patterns work especially with stretch fabrics.
I love that there is so many options.
The lifesaver is that it saves me a lot of time from
Making my own patterns.
Thank you again
