You all know how much I love the Olympia dress. The Olympia dress is a shawl collar design with an aline skirt and comes with several sleeve options.
Recently I made this one for my sister and it turned out well. I used a beautiful polka dot from Minvera. Polka Dots are in, and this rust colour certainly did not disappoint. Sometimes it is difficult wearing any shade of brown, but this colour was truly complimentary.
I love Olympia so much that
I did a Youtube video on the Love Notions Channel a few months ago hacking it
into two more beautiful designs shown below.
This post will list all the things I love about the Olympia Dress and also offer you a coupon code that can be used today July 30, 2022, to get $5 off this and any Love Notions pattern (except the recently released Saltwhistle)

Here are a few reasons if you still need just a little coaxing about buying this pattern:
- Fabric use is really not much. This is the fabric chart from the pattern so you can see what I mean
-It is a gorgeous design , the shawl collar is high fashion - a definite dress-up style!
- - Goes well with other Love Notions patterns so
you can hack/combine the bodice with the Sybil skirt, or you can combine the
skirt portion with any dress bodice.
- - Unlined bodice makes it great for warm climates
