The Factory Dress & Top PDF Sewing Pattern by Merchant & Mills is an easy-fitting, workwear-inspired design with a subtle 1920s influence. Designed to slip easily over the head, the Factory combines a relaxed silhouette with practical details for an effortlessly wearable everyday garment.

The pattern includes both the Factory Dress and Factory Top. The dress features practical pockets and ready-rolled sleeves, while the top version offers the same relaxed styling with a small slit at the centre front.

The Factory is designed with an easy fit, so Merchant & Mills recommends using your bust measurement when selecting your size.
