Day-to-night dressing is all stitched up with our easy, breezy wide-strap maxi dress pattern!
We worked with Perth-based patternmaker Lauren Boyle from Elbe Textiles to create this beautiful pattern for you. With subtle side splits and a statement elasticated back, it’s the ultimate summer staple. Layer over a top pinafore-style, or simply wear on its own for lazy beach trips or adventures after dark.
We used the midweight linen in ‘brick’ from The Fabric Store for our version. Find us on Instagram @peppermintmagazine and @elbetextiles.

What our sewing community says
Here at Peppermint, we’re passionate about all things craft, creativity and community!
The strands of Peppermint’s DNA are bonded together with buttons and thread. Since our beginnings in 2008, sustainable fashion, either by brands that are working to bring change to the industry or those made by your own two hands, is at our cotton-loving core. We love the undeniable happiness that is woven through the maker community. It’s a tough old world out there at the moment, and anything that brings joy with a side of kindness and connection (and a new creative endeavour) is a good thing indeed. We ♡ our sewing community and hope you ♡ our sewing patterns!
