Box Pleat Dress
Absolutely love the result! Very stylish, sophisticated and fabulous to wear. Easy to follow instructions, beautifully designed and pattern pieces fitted well, no problems with facings being wrong size as often happens with other pattern makers. Am making second dress now!




Easy to Follow / Minimal Design
The TAL Box Pleat Dress was an excellent introduction for me to sewing. With incredibly easy-to-follow instructions, including a visual glossary of basic sewing terminology and techniques, this pattern gave me the confidence to begin my sewing journey. I'm still hooked on sewing two years on, all thanks to this pattern. The design of the dress is minimal, with subtle details, making it timeless and unique (like the rest of TALs patterns!). Definitely a pattern you can make over and over again.
