NORIKO pattern: sew an airy kimono dress with ease
With a detailed sewing video and illustrated step-by-step instructions, you can sew the NORIKO kimono dress quite easily – even if your seam ripper usage is still slightly above average. The pattern is straightforward, quick to sew, and perfect for anyone who wants to sew their own breezy summer dress.
Sewing a kimono dress: loose, comfortable, and still beautiful
NORIKO has everything you want to wear on warm days:
- wide, airy cut
- cut-on 3/4 sleeves
- no bust darts for relaxed sewing
- round neckline with facing
- waist tie for a loose, draped look
- side seam slit for more freedom of movement
- two lengths: knee-length or calf-length
The ties ensure that the dress falls loosely and flatters the upper body comfortably. In short: you can move comfortably in the dress, look great, and still have enough room for a second piece of cake 🎂😁
Sew a summer dress from linen or viscose
In linen or cotton, NORIKO looks beautifully casual and natural; in viscose, it appears more fluid and a bit dressier. That’s exactly why this pattern is so much fun: depending on the fabric, your dress looks different every time.
If you want to sew a simple kimono dress that is finished quickly and looks like summer, you’ve come to the right place.
So grab your favorite fabric, let your sewing machine out for a spin, and sew yourself a dress with NORIKO that you will likely want to sew again right away.
These fabrics are suitable for the kimono dress
To ensure the facings hold their shape well, we recommend reinforcing them with lightweight fusible interfacing (e.g., H180) for thinner fabrics.
