KaikoTop and Dress Pattern

From beach to party, Kaiko is the ultimate summer garment for all occasions.

The variants go from short to long and include different silhouettes. A two piece bodice, a one piece bodice, a gathered neckline with bodice underneath, skirt parts in different layers, wide shoulder straps or narrow ribbons, ... Everything is possible, from loose and simple to "over the top".

As for the closure, we have two options: the button closure in the back makes for a tidy fitted silhouette, or add some fun with some trendy ties. 

The best part of this pattern: it comes in different CUP SIZES!! 
Say hello to your new favorite DIY project!

Suitable Fabrics

For Kaiko, fabric choices abound: from airy cottons to elegant viscose and silk (like) fabrics. Because the bodice piece is lined, you can also use very light fabrics, like chiffon, or embroidery fabrics. But even heavy fabrics, such as jacquard or denim will result in a nice effect. 

The fabric lengths charts show how much fabric you will need for all variations, calculated on a standard fabric width of 140 cm - 1.55 yd. If your fabric is narrower, you will need more fabric length. For broader or narrower fabrics you can calculate how much fabric you will need by laying out the pattern pieces on the table according to your fabric width and measuring how much fabric length you will need accordingly.
