Named – Reeta Shirt Dress

Reeta is a classic, loose-fitting shirt dress with simple but thought-out details. This timeless sewing pattern features pleated breast pockets, a shirt collar, and a waist gathered with a cord. The turn-ups of the t-shirt sleeves and the deep vents on the midi-length hem add a carefree character to the dress.
