The Lilian Sewing Pattern
$37.00The Lilian Sewing Pattern by Merchant & Mills is a beautifully simple slip dress designed for layering or lounging. Originally created to pair with the brand’s semi-sheer Indian handloom fabrics, this elegant pattern provides the perfect lightweight layer beneath sheer garments — or can be made as a minimalist nightdress for effortless comfort.
With clean lines and subtle shaping, The Lilian is ideal for intermediate sewists who appreciate understated design and versatility. The pattern works best in lightweight woven fabrics such as cotton lawn, voile, poplin, Tencel, double gauze, or Indian handlooms. For a true slip feel, choose a fabric with a soft drape rather than something too thick.
