Buy the Joan Dress sewing pattern from Sew Over It. Based on the wardrobe of Mad Men’s iconic Joan Holloway, the Joan Dress should be a staple in any vintage lover's wardrobe.
A fitted bodice and skirt give the Joan Dress a sassy, feminine feel that Joan herself would adore. The bodice is fitted with darts at the waist and back shoulder and features a gently scooped neckline. The stylish 3/4 length sleeves and 60s inspired tie collar are super elegant. Designed to hit below the knee, the skirt is semi-fitted with darts and sports a kick pleat at the back hem. The dress is also fully lined, giving you a gorgeous professional finish.
