  1. Leanne Miller –

    Give it a try you may be pleasantly surprised and follow the recommendations for fabric selection because it truly does make all the difference in the fit and finish. Very versatile given your fabric choice, from casual to formal. I believe that my top will be worn a lot, super cool and casual for summer (cannot wait to pack it for my next cruise) or dressed up for more formal wear. Chiffon awesome fabric to do that.

  2. Julie Lussier –

    That kind of dress is well-fitting on all kind of bodies. The pattern is so well explained, with a lot a pictures! You need it!! 🙂

  3. Maria Luísa Santos –

    There are so many small details that make this pattern attractive, the cut out back, the front pleat! Also top or dress length and sleeveless or long sleeve make it perfect for all seasons!

  4. Roberta Venutolo –

    Go for it! You get a dress AND a shirt!

  5. Roxanne Deziel –

    I would say that is a very easy pattern perfect for beginner. Easy to follow, you can do a lot of version.

  6. Andie Hiestand –

    It is a great way to expand your skills, and the gathering on the back piece makes it a truly unique garment!

  7. Alaina Erickson –

    Nice, relaxed fit with ample room for bust and waist.

  8. Cindy Parrett –

    I like seeing the design on the back. It’s simple yet unique design.

  9. Yulia Shikhova Korinnyi –

    Make sure you use fabric with a good drape/flow. It’s a beautiful pattern with interesting details. Don’t expect it to be tight fitting, it’s going to be loose, embrace it, it looks great!

  10. Marie-Claude Martel –

    Use a very soft fabric if making the dress, it’s a better fit.

  11. Rebecca Holmes –

    I would say it is a lovely pattern and pretty easy to sew up, but be selective in your fabric choice. The type of fabric used could make all the difference. The fabric suggestions in the pattern are right on though, so stick to those.

  12. Martina Ståhl –

    I love the pattern! Will make several dresses and tops from this pattern. Also want to make some for my daughter

  13. Anusha Krishnamurthy –

    Super quick to sew , pattern will suit most fabrics from knit to light weight woven. Will be making lots of this top . A wardrobe staple.

  14. Lim Boon Kuan –

    I like how its a comfy swing top without excessively flared, such that i may look preggy. the swing is just nice!

  15. Gabz Jefferson –

    This pattern is so cute. My favorite feature is the back side of this garment.. it looks complicated to sew but the instructions is as clear as crystal. I am happy that Rebecca Page made this sewing pattern.

  16. Magda Rindmo –

    Nice pattern!

  17. Shelley Clark –

    This is such a lovely pattern. Everything comes together quickly but with such great details. I can’t wait to make another one.

  18. Tori Priest –

    This top came together quicker than I expected and delivered a nice, up scale top I can wear casually or dress it up!

  19. Allison Tierney –

    I really enjoy the back cut-out on this shirt. It gives it a fun little edge.

  20. Cara Girven –

    Such a fun pattern! Makes a lovely top perfect for dressing up or down in the warmer months. I love that you can use woven or knit for a completely different look. Great instructions, easy to sew.

  21. Naomi Cash –

    I love the versatility of this shirt/dress. It can be formal for a night out, or casual for Sunday lunch. Sleeves for winter, or none for a hot summers day. It is truly amazing and you will not be disappointed!

  22. Jess Boaz-Head –

    This is the perfect summer pattern. It’s a pretty quick sew and it yields beautiful results.

  23. Cordelia Henderson –

    It was a quick sew and it’s a good wardrobe builder!

  24. Kelsey Jean –

    I was intimidated, but the St. Tropez was easier than I thought it would be! The sandwiching of the yoke in the back piece was genius and created a very professional finish.

  25. Jennifer Lichak –

    What a lovely top! Flattering and fun to make.

  26. An Staute –

    Fun quick sew. A nice and fun item I’ll wear loads this summer

  27. Beth Barton –

    This is a super cute pattern for a quick party dress. The deep pleat in the front bodice can make the silhouette a bit top-heavy, so I would highly recommend for pear-shaped ladies. Loved the cute peek-a-boo window in the back; a very simple closure for sewists who aren’t confident in their zippers yet.

  28. Meghan Rose Allen –

    Nice flowy dress with lots of space. Pair with a belt and you’ve got a cute outfit. Easy to sew and a good way to get comfortable sewing with bias binding.

  29. Shaina O’Dell –

    The St. Tropez is an elegant top/dress pattern with thorough instructions and professional finishing techniques that make it look great inside and out.

  30. Sequoia Bond –

    I enjoyed making this dress for my mom. She loves it also. Easy to understand directions and great drafting.

  31. Sequoialynn Sews –

    My first go with French Seams. They were well explained and easy to follow. Love the back cut out detailing.

  32. Sarah Brown (verified owner) –

    I absolutely LOVE my St. Tropez top, it wasn’t too difficult to figure out And I plan to make more as soon as I can! Super comfy and well written pattern. There is a YouTube video that I consulted to help me figure out the way the facings were supposed to go on to the back. But I think now that I’ve done it once, I can do it again much more smoothly!

  33. Kelly stokes –

    Gorgeous top! Once the gathering and bias binding are done this is a simple top. I love the details I this top (or dress!) though, so totally worth the effort

  39. Anna Metcalf –

    This dress totally reminds me of a cute sundress, or a walk on the beach kind of dress. If you don’t make your bias tape, then it’s a super quick sew and gives great results!

  40. Naomi Cash –

    I love the versatility of this shirt/dress. It can be formal for a night out, or casual for Sunday lunch. Sleeves for winter, or none for a hot summers day. It is truly amazing and you will not be disappointed!

  42. Val Berkenpas –

    This was a delightful pattern with enough options to make it work for all seasons. The instructions are clear and concise with excellent photos accompanying the layout. I made it in cotton but I am sure any soft flowing fabric would also be very suitable.

  52. Sequoia Bond –

    I enjoyed making this dress for my mom. She loves it also. Easy to understand directions and great drafting.

  53. Sara Russell –

    I love the simplicity of the St Tropez swing. That little back detail is perfect!

  54. Kelsey Jean –

    I was intimidated, but the St. Tropez was easier than I thought it would be! The sandwiching of the yoke in the back piece was genius and created a very professional finish. One thing I would change would be to lengthen my next one about 3 inches, as it was too short for my preference and the cover photo made it difficult to tell how long the finished piece was. Otherwise, what a great flowy summer top!

  55. Hildur Gudmundsdottir –

    A beautiful pattern. I was sure that there would be a lot more steps in order to create this lovely piece. Was surprisingly glad to find out that there were such few steps. Has a nice variety of options and the possibility to create a simple yet elegant piece.

  56. Geneviève Ouellet –

    I love how quick this dress came together. And the result is just lovely! I will make more for the upcoming summer for sure!

  57. Cordelia Henderson –

  59. Allison Tierney –

    I really enjoy the back cut-out on this shirt. It gives it a fun little edge. I found the sizing to fit really well in the shoulders but to be too large everywhere else. I ended up trimming a few inches off each side to get a more flattering look.

  60. Anusha Krishnamurthy –

    Super quick to sew , pattern will suit most fabrics from knit to light weight woven . Will be making lots of this top . A wardrobe staple

  62. Sabrina Ropp –

    I am in love with this pattern, and I can’t believe I never made it before now! Many ladies at work loved it as well, and I’m in the process of making one for a coworker.

  63. Maria Green –

    Quick easy sew. Cute little dress and top pattern.
