Tilly And The Buttons Noa Pinafore Sewing Pattern

The Tilly And The Buttons Noa Pinafore Sewing Pattern combines classic tailoring with modern style - featuring princess seams, a front zip, and customisable details for a flattering, versatile fit.

Meet Noa, the polished pinafore that’s set to become a wardrobe favourite. With a flattering princess-seamed bodice, exposed zip fastening, and optional D-ring adjuster, Noa blends timeless lines with contemporary edge. Designed for everyday wear, it layers beautifully over T-shirts, blouses, or roll necks - perfect for effortless, year-round styling.

The Noa Pinafore features a semi-fitted silhouette shaped with princess seams and waist darts for a comfortable yet structured fit. Choose between a round or V neckline, each finished with an all-in-one facing using the clever 'burrito method'. The exposed front zip adds a professional finish, while the optional D-ring back adjuster lets you tailor your fit perfectly. With two hem lengths - mini or knee-length - Noa offers endless styling potential.
