Isla... the next dress in the Dreamy Collection...

I was honored to test out the next dress in the Made for Mermaids Dreamy Collection- the Isla! It's hard to top the gorgeous Juliette dress that released last week, but the Isla is equally gorgeous and fun... just look at that back- SWOON!


She has a hi/lo hem look that is just oh so precious! The straps have button holes that can be adjusted for growth or a better fit. Not to mention the elastic back which is very forgiving when it comes to the perfect fit!


This pattern ranges from sizes 1/2 to 14- a very generous size range! It has nested layers so you can print only the sizes you want and my favorite no-trim pages so it goes together fast!




The front has a gorgeous pointed bodice that is perfect for using lace overlays or accent trims. I chose to keep this Isla plain but there is so much you could add here!



But the back of this dress is the real show stopper in my opinion- choose your most beautiful trim and let it shine! The pattern has instructions for pleating your trim but I chose to leave this gorgeous trim flat and let it shine all on its own.



The pattern includes cut lines for both top and dress lengths. It is equally precious as a top. Pop over to the Made for Mermaids Pattern Group and check out some of the tester pics in top length. <3




The Isla pattern will be debuting soon in the Made for Mermaids Pattern shop, so be on the look out for it and other upcoming additions to the Dreamy Collection. <3 <3 <3
