Sofia is a gorgeous strappy dress with a lower back cut-out. The bodice is lined and gathered at the centre front to create a gentle sweetheart shape over a wide waistband. Version 1 closes with a beautiful bow at the back (fully bra-friendly when tied the right way). Version 2 closes with buttons at the centre back and includes two options to create a higher or lower back cut-out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can make Sofia with a simple gathered skirt or with three gathered tiers for more volume and for a chance to play with prints – Sofia is a great one for stripes!
