CHAVAFRONCER, dress or blouse pattern and tutorial, sizes 34 to 52, in PDF and printed format
With Chavafroncer, a dress or blouse pattern and tutorial, we wanted to combine lightness, movement, and freedom. The idea? To offer you a feminine dress without ever feeling restricted. Whether you opt for the open back held by delicate ties or the closed-back version for more discretion, every detail has been designed to adapt to your desires. You choose the length, the sleeves – sleeveless, short, or 3/4 – and create a piece that perfectly matches your style and the season.
Available in sizes 34 to 52, Chavafroncer adapts to all body types. Versatile and elegant, this pattern is designed to allow you to create a unique, perfectly fitted, and charming piece. Enjoy a creative moment and make your new favorite piece!
At La Robe du Chat, we make it a point of honor to offer you the best. Every pattern is designed to make you feel supported at every step of your project. Our instructions are clear and detailed, and for even more ease, you have access to a video tutorial.
Sewing level
In terms of sewing, Chavafroncer is a pattern suitable for beginner to intermediate sewers. This means you can start if you have already sewn several simple items (garments or accessories).
By sewing Chavafroncer, you will:
- Attach a facing to a V-neckline,
- Sew ties (open-back version),
- Attach an invisible bias binding (sleeveless version),
- Sew and assemble sleeves (versions with sleeves),
- And of course, you'll be making gathers! So if you don't like gathers, move on 😉

Patterns that simplify your sewing

One pattern = multiple possibilities
With our multi-variant patterns, you have the freedom to create multiple styles from a single design. Each variant allows you to customize your projects according to your desires.
Fewer constraints, more creativity, and always the satisfaction of wearing something that reflects you!
Tested and approved!
Before being released, each pattern is tested by a group of impact testers. These sewers of all levels validate the pattern, the instructions, and especially the good fit of the garment in all sizes.
The result? No unpleasant surprises: you sew a pattern that has been tested and approved, ready to be successful in real life!
Collapsible content
Seam allowance included
Cut your fabric following the pattern outlines. You do not need to add any seam allowance as it is already included. For your information: seam allowances are 1 cm and hems are 2 cm. For technical reasons, these measurements may vary, but in that case, I will let you know 😊
No overlapping parts
Perfectly mark out the pattern pieces; placed next to each other, they do not overlap.
