Maison Fauve | NOTTE Dress Sewing Pattern

From the Festive Fauve 2025 capsule collection, the beautiful NOTTE dress is an elegant and feminine creation, designed for the holidays. Its sweetheart neckline flatters the neckline, while its defined waist and delicately pleated bodice create a graceful, effortless silhouette. Two back options (open or buttoned) and two skirt lengths allow for a variety of styles, from evening looks to more everyday wear.

Its shortened sleeves and flowing skirt with pockets combine comfort and style.
NOTTE is the ball gown revisited: contemporary, danceable and luminous, perfect for shining with lightness.

Sewing Level : INTERMEDIATE

The technical points of the pattern are: sewing darts and pleats, sewing rounded necklines with a neat finish, making a sheath construction for impeccable shoulder finishes, making a button placket, attaching elastic at the back and sewing an invisible side zip.
