About Style Falcon

Style Falcon sewing patterns are thoughtfully designed for women of menopause age and beyond, enabling them to create a handmade wardrobe that fits their bodies and their lives, without the hassle of adapting patterns designed for much younger bodies.

Unlike most sewing patterns, Style Falcon patterns are drafted for a mature figure - not a youthful hourglass figure. That means:

Little bust-to-waist definition
Lower bust points, for a “C” to “D” cup
More room at the tummy, hip and sleeve bicep
Center-back seams, with rounded back and forward shoulder shaping
For people about 5’4” (about 163 cm)

See the sizing chart for a list of body measurements and finished measurements for this pattern.

About the Make a Point Dress

A modern shirt dress or big shirt with loads of details and drama. Angled princess seams create a sharp look and conceal perfect pockets. A stand collar and button placket retains a bit of the classic button-up shirt or shirtdress look. Fullness through the sides show off the sweep of your silhouette. Style lines celebrate the unexpected.

Create View A - a short-sleeved big shirt to style with leggings or straight-leg pants. The shirt is hemmed to hit mid-thigh.

Or challenge yourself with View B - a designer-quality dress, complete with long sleeves, plackets and cuffs. The dress is hemmed to just above the knee.

Both versions offer creative options for color-blocking and pattern play, with side panels and back shoulder panels.

Fabric Choices

Choose drapey woven fabrics for the Make a Point Dress, such as challis, crepe or georgette in rayon, cotton, linen, silk or wool. Lawn, shirtings or light suitings with drape also are great choices. Wider fabric is recommended. See the materials chart for a list of everything sewers need to get started.

Sewing Experience
