PDF SEWING PATTERN | 1920s Flapper Dress | Folkwear

Skill Level: Beginner
Sizes: Women's XS–3XL
Language: English Only

The 1920s Flapper Dress sewing pattern by Folkwear recreates the straight, relaxed silhouette that became an icon of Roaring Twenties fashion. Based on an original 1920s dress, this remarkably simple design uses only two pattern pieces while offering plenty of opportunity for dramatic embellishment.

The dress features a slightly A-line silhouette, sleeveless bodice, rounded neckline and a slightly dropped waist. The front and back are identical, creating the easy, unrestricted shape characteristic of 1920s flapper fashion.

Folkwear's original garment was made from black cotton and silk gauze heavily embellished with black glass beads arranged in Art Deco-inspired motifs, with red glass beads outlining the neckline, armholes, waist and hem. Recreate the elaborate period look with beads or fringe, or keep the design beautifully simple in a fluid silk, rayon, lawn, gauze or linen.

Shipping Policy
We are committed to providing reliable nationwide delivery using trusted shipping partners.

Québec and Ontario

We’ve recently updated our shipping options to give you more flexibility and competitive rates. At checkout, you can now choose from multiple carriers — including Canada Post, ICS Courrier, Canpar, Purolator, FedEx, UPS, and more.

Shipping fees are automatically calculated based on the weight of your order, with several delivery options and prices available.

If a carrier does not service your address, we may need to use an alternative option, which could incur additional charges, particularly for P.O. box addresses.

For remote or rural areas where delivery costs are higher, additional fees may apply. In these cases, we will provide proof of the shipping costs to ensure transparency.

Other Provinces in Canada, USA, and International Shipping

For customers in other Canadian provinces, the USA, or internationally, we offer a range of shipping options through various carriers. The customer is responsible for selecting their preferred shipping method at checkout.

Please note that our system provides an estimated shipping cost at checkout, which may not always reflect the actual shipping charges.

In cases of oversized orders, shipments to rural or remote areas, or delivery to P.O. boxes, the final shipping cost may differ. If this occurs, we will contact you directly with the updated shipping cost, which will be the responsibility of the customer.

Import Duties & Customs Fees (USA & International Orders)

All orders shipped outside of Canada — including to the United States — may be subject to import duties, customs fees, taxes and other charges assessed by the destination country’s customs authorities. These charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost and are the sole responsibility of the customer.

Customers agree to pay any duties, taxes, fees, or charges required by the destination country in order for customs to release the package. Failure to pay such charges may result in your order being returned or abandoned by the carrier, and no refunds will be issued for duties or unused shipping fees.

We strive to provide clear communication and ensure your shipping experience is seamless. If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out to us at: info@lestissees.com

Once you place an order, we require 2 to 5 business days for processing.

**Please note that flash sales or promotional periods may result in longer processing times.

If your order exceeds 30 lbs, you may be subject to additional charges due to its oversized nature.

Please note that shipping costs for combined orders will not be refunded.

FREE SHIPPING

Free shipping is not always available. When we do offer it, you’ll see it clearly announced on our homepage with the banner: FREE SHIPPING.

RETURNS AND REFUNDS

Our top priority is ensuring your satisfaction at all times!

Please note that all sales are final, and we do not offer returns or refunds. However, we understand that damages can occur during shipping, and small imperfections may exist despite our inspections.

If you receive one or more damaged items, please email us at info@lestissees.com within 7 days of receiving your material and attach a picture of the damaged goods.

Please ensure that the fabric has not been washed, cut, or used before contacting us.

We'll take individual care to assess each situation and offer the best possible service.

DIGITAL PRODUCTS: NO RETURNS OR REFUNDS

All of our sewing patterns are sold as digital PDF files and are delivered instantly after purchase.
Because digital products cannot be returned once downloaded, we do not offer refunds, returns, or exchanges on any PDF pattern purchases.
Please make sure you have the correct email address and a device that can open PDF files before completing your order.

If you encounter any issues with your download link or file, feel free to contact us and we’ll be happy to assist you.

PLEASE NOTE

We strive for excellence in our products and customer service, but some imperfections may occur with fabric.

Please note that stains, holes, or blemishes within 3 inches (10 cm) of the edge are considered acceptable. Missing or pulled knit stitches on the wrong side of the fabric that do not distort the face are also considered acceptable. Additionally, fabric cut at 1 to 3 cm from the edge is acceptable. Stains on the inside of the fabric are also acceptable if they do not appear on the right side.

Please be aware that fabric may shrink after the first wash, so we recommend purchasing slightly more than the exact length required for your project.

We cannot cancel or refund orders once we've cut your fabric. If a refund is necessary, a 5% administration fee of your total bill will be charged.

We cannot offer refunds or compensation for items purchased a few days before they go on sale.

If a product is sold out, we'll contact you immediately to offer either a refund of the item at the price you've paid or a replacement with a product of equal value.

Please note that monitor or device settings may affect how you view product colours on our website. We cannot issue a refund if there are discrepancies between the product image and the actual colour.
