The Lilian by Merchant & Mills is a beautifully simple slip dress sewing pattern, designed to be worn under semi-sheer garments or styled as a standalone sundress. Originally intended as a nightdress or under-layer, it has quickly become a favourite among the Merchant & Mills sewing community for its elegant silhouette and versatile styling.

This pattern is now available in printed format for the first time, offering a timeless design perfect for layering or warm-weather wear. Ideal fabrics include fine cottons or a crisp cotton poplin. Whether worn as a slip, nightdress, or light summer dress, the Lilian is a wardrobe staple you’ll return to again and again.
