Notches Kaiko Top and Dress

Buy the Kaiko Top and Dress sewing pattern from Notches. From sun-drenched beach days to cocktail evenings, from peplum top to chic dress, Kaiko is the ultimate summer garment for all occasions.

The variants go from short to long, and include different silhouettes. Possibilities include a two-piece bodice, a one-piece bodice, a gathered neckline with bodice underneath, skirt parts in different layers, wide shoulder straps or narrow ribbons. There are two back closure options. The button closure makes for a tidy fitted silhouette, or add some fun with trendy ties. The pattern also includes cup sizes A to G for the perfect fit.

You can make 46 different garments with the Kaiko pattern! 

This sewing pattern is available to buy in the following formats:

– PDF (available to download immediately after purchase). What is a PDF?

– PDF pattern + Printed A0 copy shop (We print out the A0 pattern sheets, but you’ll need to download the digital instructions, as we don’t print these. The PDF files will be emailed immediately after purchase, and the A0 pattern sheets will be dispatched next working day). What is Copy Shop?

Note if purchasing copy shop printing: Some of the pattern pieces have been split (to fit on the A0 sheets) and will need to be joined together.

Suggested fabrics: Fabric choices abound, from airy cottons to elegant viscose and silk (like) fabrics. Because the bodice is lined, you can also use very light fabrics, like chiffon, or embroidery fabrics. But even heavy fabrics, such as jacquard or denim will create a nice effect (the blue dress in the image gallery was made from a double-sided jacquard).

Fabric requirements: See image gallery.
