Nordic summer dress is a basic A-line dress. It is somewhat wide in the model with deep armholes. The dress is knitted from the bottom up in double thread, and looks the same on the front and back. It may feel heavy on the needles, but hangs nicely and is warm and cool against the body. Due to the weight of the garment, it can be nice to wear it with a belt at the waist.
Size guide:
A dress with straps will feel wider than the above measurements suggest. You can therefore choose a size that is approximately 0-5 cm smaller (negative ease) than your bust measurement.
It is the garment's measurements that are described above.
