Inject a little bohemian glamour into your wardrobe with the Closet Core's dreamy Nicks Dress or Blouse! In multiple variations with soft gathering and delicate details, it's satisfying to make and a pleasure to wear.

This three-session workshop is centred around Views A (dress) and B (tunic) of the Nicks pattern. Both views feature gathered tiers, a clean-finished yoke and a bias-bound neckline with delicate rouleau button loops and buttons. Due to the high volume of gathers, participants who opt to make View A (the dress) can expect additional homework/prep between sessions.
