The Saltwater Slip is a simple slip dress with adjustable straps that can be layered or worn on its own. The pattern comes with two length options: above the knee, and tea length (with side slits). It also comes with optional side ties to add a bit of waist shaping. Wear this slip over a tee shirt, under a sheer dress, or on its own! The pattern comes in sizes XS-7X and includes multiple cup size options (B/C and C/D). This is a pullover dress with no closures. You'll want to make this easy-to-sew slip again and again!
Sizes: XS - 7X
The designer recommends identifying the size of your bust and the size of your hips and blending between sizes if needed. The pattern includes B/C and C/D cup front pieces – chose the option closer to the bra cup size you wear.
