Mori Girl Ruffled Dress for Kaye Wiggs and Liz Frost MSD Dolls

Description

This digital doll clothes pattern will let you sew a dress and skirt for a Mori Girl outfit for your Kaye Wiggs or Liz Frost MSD sized doll. Pattern pieces are included to fit both the new KW MSD style body and the older KW MSD/Liz Frost MSD style body.

If you see a girl that looks as though she is a fairy tale forest dweller who has just stepped out of an enchanted wood, chances are good you’ve spotted a Mori Girl. Born in Japan as a subculture, Mori Girl style embodies living in the moment and living in harmony with nature.

Mori (meaning forest) Girl style is all about natural fibres and colours from nature – creams, browns, greens and autumnal oranges, reds and yellows. The dress features ruffled layers and a clean looking, placket closure in the back. Also included is a Slip Skirt. Mori style favours a lot of layering and the Slip Skirt works perfectly under the dress. This dress can be used as a foundation layer for Mori Girl style, but also works as a cute, everyday dress.  This pattern coordinates with other KeLibu Mori Girl patterns:
