This is a simple style that would suit most younger people.

I love the playful summer look on this romper. I will make a top too for sure because I loved how the top looked before attaching it to the romper too! You’ll enjoy this pattern for a long time!
Justine Stroeh (verified owner) –
Loved it!! I love a flowy top and this is perfect. Simple instructions make for a quick sew and ready to wear. Highly recommended!
Meredith Simmons (verified owner) –
1.) I sewed an invisible zipper and didn’t break anything or cry!
2.) I turned a necktie without needing wine!
In short, this is another amazing pattern that teaches you difficult skills but doesn’t overwhelm you with instructions. The YouTube video on how to install an invisible zipper is so helpful!
Honestly, I was done and didn’t realize I was. I hope people don’t shy away from sewing the woven because the instructions are extremely well-written and helped me get over my zipper anxiety.

This was a easy and quick sew to make up. I opted to do a Cerena top and i had it put together in less than an hour. The clear and concise instructions make it smooth sailing as does the addition of imagery. This pattern is just perfect for beginners and for the experienced seamstress alike. Another brilliant pattern by Rebecca Page. Cant wait to make up many more for the summer.

Love the pattern, like the way my back looks 🙂
Kelly Nicholas (verified owner) –
I was amazed at how quickly it came together. The final fit is an elegant, yet comfortable, ensemble that can easily transition from day to night. I would recommend this pattern as an easy sew for somebody looking for an eye catching addition to their wardrobe. I am excited about pairing it with cardigans as we move into fall!

It’s a very flattering pattern. I love the fact that the bottoms come with multiple lengths. There are so many options for this pattern. This is for everyone.

I am actually surprised when i sewed this pattern.. It is easy to make and so stylish.. The pattern pieces are well-drafted. Very easy to understand instructions. Must have pattern for fall/spring.

Talk about a quick and cute sew! Great for knits and woven alike, this is a great summer top for day time or date night. Make the entire Cerena romper for another great look!

This was a super fast project with wonderful results. The top is so very fast to see up you will want to make one in every color. The romper is adorable and so comfortable to wear.
Jennifer Lichak (verified owner) –
The Cerena Romper and top is a versatile pattern that is on trend! Not many patterns can be made with knits or woven fabric and turn out well in both. It can be a flowy top or a date night romper. Thorough instructions with clear photos and a quick guide for advanced sewists make this pattern great for all levels of experience. Thanks for a great pattern!
Debra (verified owner) –
I love how this can be made as either a romper or just a super cute halter top! The top was a quick sew and as always a very professional looking end product. I completed it in one day.
Simone Major (verified owner) –
Yet another fabulous pattern by Rebecca Page! Really fast and easy to make with unique details you won’t find on other patterns!
An Staute (verified owner) –
I love the playful summer look on this romper. I went for a bohemian look with lots of color. I used a knit I had bought with a romper in mind, so it was meant to be. I will make a top too for sure, cause I loved how the top looked before attaching it to the romper too! You’ll enjoy this pattern for a long time!
Jessica Mullens (verified owner) –
I Love the versatility of this pattern and the option to do knit and woven fabrics plus a top or romper choice. Directions are clear and easy to follow for the knit option. I love the layer printing option and having the serger or regular machine sewing option. Pocket options are always a plus! Looking forward to utilizing this pattern over and over.
Amy Reinagel (verified owner) –
The Cerena is such a lovely pattern, with an array of options to get a different look every time. I sewed up the top version, and it was such a quick sew! Can’t wait to sew up the romper next 😀
Emma Zobel (verified owner) –
The Cerena is a stunning romper, with lots of options. Make a top, or attach pants in three different lengths. You can choose to add pockets, or leave them out. Almost any lightweight fabric will work well here, and depending on fabric choice you can make anything from a summery beach romper to a red carpet outfit!
Pam Mauldin (verified owner) –
This is such a quick and easy top! Super cute, and uses very little fabric! Love it!
Joanna Wilks (verified owner) –
First time making a halter neck top, this style does not disappoint. the back elastic is a great addition to make this top super comfortable. great instructions and a lovely straight forward sew
Kate Golden (verified owner) –
As with all of Rebecca’s patterns, this one is thorough and has a fantastic attention to detail which leads to a professionally finished garment. There are several options (top, romper, and leg lengths) which can be combined to create a variety of looks.

I love this romper. It was not a beginner pattern but definitely not too difficult either. I like the bottom darts and shape. I cant not wait to make the pants!
Dani Arthur (verified owner) –
This pattern is such a beautiful sew. It can be sewn to be dressy for a night out or super casual for a day at the beach. There are so many options including woven and knit fabric options and wonderful instructions for hidden seams for a perfect finish. I really enjoyed trying different options for a Mummy, daughter and dolly matching set and we can’t wait to wear them all spring and summer here in Australia! Thank you for another beautifully made pattern.

This is such a fun pattern! Perfect summer outfit with the option to show a little skin.
Bracken Thompson (verified owner) –
I made the top as an after thought after making the romper. The top is really nice. Its an easy make and very versatile. I would recommend if you want a halter top for summer. It would also work with an elastic waist like the romper.
Melinda Cornwall (verified owner) –
Loved that this beautiful romper could be made in either woven or knit fabric. Because the knit option didn’t require a zip, and I chose the basic back, it was such an easy and quick sew. Such a comfortable outfit to wear to a Sunday picnic!
Branka Čelić (verified owner) –
I made M size in woven fabric and it fits perfect around my waist, and I am in the middle of the measurement. Since I have veeeeery long legs, I added 15cm to the length of the romper, and it was a good decision. Pattern is very well fit, and explained to the every detail (and I am not an english native speaker)
Jose Vernooy Winkel (verified owner) –
This is a easy sew! I did make it more complicated by adding a top layer of lace. Working with the lace edging as hem was easy enough, needed fold over elastic to match up the raw edges of upper and under top.
Used cotton sateen as under fabric which is a little thick as under layer, so I ended up with a little bit of puff in the waist. Also I would recommend to lengthen the legs a little more to have a long legged version. But hey, I’m gonna find my glass of bubbly to match this glamorous look, you’ll have lots of fun with this pattern promise! Oww and don’t forget it’s got POCKETS ?

I made my Cerena Romper in light weight woven, added pockets to it! The pattern is easy to follow, with clear informations. The only part where lost time (and patience) was the invisible zipper. Never used one before. Pretty sure the next time will be easier.
Love this romper! Very comfortable! Perfect for the summer !
Shannon Ireland (verified owner) –
I absolutely LOVE this romper! I’ve never made a romper before let alone wear one, but I wanted to give this a go and I’m so glad I did! I love that there are so many different pant length options, it can be a romper or just a top, AND it can be woven or knit! I’m definitely going to make more of these, it’s perfect for summer.
Liz Faber (verified owner) –
I made the cerena jumpsuit for my daughter. She loves it! It’s super comfy and perfect for climbing on monkey bars or jumping on the trampoline. The sew was also easy and the instructions were easy to follow.
Linda Riggall (verified owner) –
A big learner curve for me but well worth it. My husband asked me if I’d bought it and said it looked very professional. I love the fact you can make it fit perfectly. I’ve wanted one for ages but as I have a long torso and shorter legs it was impossible to buy off the shelf. I wanted to get the sizing right so I made a toile first. The pattern takes a bit of time to put together but the steps are all explained really well.
I made mine in knit fabric, a lovely drapey jersey for the top and a heavier weight jersey for the bottoms. I challenged myself and made the button up back and it looks beautiful. I will definitely be making another.
Amanda Cunningham (verified owner) –
I loved this pattern. Although halters aren’t usually my thing, this was fun to make and made me feel beautiful to wear. The instructions were easy to follow. Fabric choice definitely plays a part as I tried the top out of a lined eyelet and it was too thick and bulky. This DPB was amazing and perfect for this outfit.
Jennifer Means (verified owner) –
Just my style but I’m really struggling with the back elastic. I can’t get it tight enough. This top is just my style though so I can’t wait to figure it out!!
Genevieve Lynne Grossmann (verified owner) –
I enjoyed this sew. The instructions are really great and I LOVE my new romper. Perfect for summer.
Nicole Cox (verified owner) –
I really love this pattern. It has so many options to choose from. You can go easy peasy casual stretch knit or go for the woven fabric option which gives you a more coastal dressy feel. I highly recommend this pattern. So far I’ve made the shorts version in Knit and a pants version in woven. Love them both!
Charlene Lee (verified owner) –
i really liked making this pattern , my fabric was a woven silky print and my model looks so nice in this outfit. There needs to be a statement in the instructions that states that the placket back has to be used with the zippered pants. I switched the back to the straight closed back and encountered problems with getting it on. However I corrected it by taking out the darts in the back and putting in elastic in the top bottom back. The instructions as always are very clear except on the point mentioned.Love making your patterns !
