The Monae shirt and dress is a sewing pattern to create a fun and chic shirt or dress with a fun optional sash that ties as a faux bow to the bodice. If you’re in for all bows, you can also add bows to either of the three sleeve lengths of the Monae. Monae features a fun box-pleated skirt in dress length, but is also available as shirt length. Embellish it with all features for a fun shirt or dress or leave all bells and whistles out for a true basic! The choice is yours and possibilities are endless. The best part is that the Monae Shirt and Dress is exchangeable with some other Fab For You Patterns! This will help you mix-and-match to create a whole new stylish garment. As with all Fab For You Patterns, the instructions of the Monae pattern also includes an inspiring tip section to make the most out of the pattern.
The dress version of the Monae Shirt and Dress perfectly suits the Brielle legging. The Brielle legging also features the bow details, so this makes the perfect pair. The four included lengths makes it possible to use the Brielle all year long, whether it’s as biker short underneath a dress or as long legging to keep your kid’s legs warm during the colder days.

Suggested material for the Monae Shirt and Dress
To create a Monae Shirt and Dress, we suggest to use medium weight knit fabrics with at least 30% stretch like: cotton lycra, jersey, interlock or french terry. You can also use a more light weight knit fabric like cotton spandex, but keep in mind that you might need to size down if you choose to use a thinner fabric or a fabric type with more stretch than recommended. We don’t recommend the use of light weight fabric for the bodice when making the dress length. The weight of the skirt will pull down the top, which influences the fit of the top.
For the bands you can choose to use either ribbing or use the same fabric as the dress (main fabric). The Monae Shirt and Dress comes with pattern pieces for the different types of fabrics, but you might need to adjust depending on the amount of stretch and recovery if you choose a different type of fabric for the bands.
