Pattern description

This 107x107 stitch counted cross-stitch pattern captures a sophisticated woman in a richly layered burgundy and mauve gown, her dark hair swept into an ornate updo adorned with sparkles. The jewel-tone palette and intricate layering of the dress create a luxurious, vintage-inspired aesthetic perfect for needleworkers seeking an intermediate challenge. With 27 DMC thread colors, this design rewards careful attention to shading and blending, allowing stitchers to build depth through subtle color transitions. The finished piece makes an elegant addition to any room, particularly appealing to those who appreciate fashion illustration or period-inspired decor.

Stitch planning checklist

  • Measure your fabric against the stitch count to confirm finished size.
  • Sort floss by symbol before you start; pre-thread a few needles for speed.
  • Work in small blocks to keep counting accurate and spot mistakes early.
  • Backstitch at the end of each session so outlines stay crisp.
