A dirndl is a type of traditional dress worn in Germany and especially Bavaria, Austria and South Tyrol. It is based on the traditional clothing of Alp peasants. Nowadays, the Dirndl is often seen at traditional festivals, the most famous being Oktoberfest.
With this pattern you can create a button front or lace-up front dirndl. Both options have a mock front and the dress closes with hook and loop tape in the back.
The blouse is a crop top that is closed with snaps in the back and is worn underneath the dirndl.
The apron completes the traditional dress.
This PDF sewing pattern is designed to fit 18" dolls such as American Girl®.
