Silk shirtdress pattern with long sleeves

Pleats on an outdoor are a kind of a symbol of elegance and cuteness combined, so it’s no wonder this midi dress emits those characteristics, with its long sleeves that have pleated shoulders, an inverted pleat at the bottom of the back of the dress, a pleated front pocket, a subtle collar, and front button-up closure. The fabric that is recommended for this dress is silk and it is extremely good choice for an outdoor party or walk as satin does not stain when wet.
